I'm in Bleach, starting with Unlimited Blade Works.

Will they suffer a betrayal from Captain Erin?

"Captain Erin, now that you've read the letter, what's your explanation?"

Upon seeing that Erin had finished reading the letter, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni asked in a deep voice.

"Captain-Commander Yamamoto, the contents of this letter are far too persuasive. Even I would find it difficult to find any flaws in it."

Erin shook his head.

It has to be said that Aizen Sousuke's move was almost a "finishing blow".

There is the testimony of Ichimaru Gin, a disciple of Erin, and at this moment, Ichimaru Gin has also fallen in Erin's battle.

It has strong factual logic, connecting some of Erin's actions with some of Aizen's own actions, thus enhancing credibility.

After all, it's a fact that Erin has been wandering around Rukongai almost every day for the past few years.

Even Erin herself knew that revealing her visit to Rukongai to find the "child" would only increase the credibility of the letter's contents.

"So, Captain Erin admits that you did all of this?"

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni slightly opened his eyes, and an immense spiritual pressure erupted from his body.

“Hey, old man, I only said that I had a hard time finding any flaws in this letter, I did not admit that I did what is said in this letter.”

"My appearances in Rukongai in recent years are not for any Hollowfication experiments, but because Haruko and I have reached the age to become parents, so we want to adopt a child in Rukongai."

"As for what you see in your eyes now..."

"It must have been Captain Aizen who framed me."

"When I was preparing to return to Seireitei today, I sensed a spiritual pressure that was different from that of the Shinigami and the Hollows."

"When I arrived here, I saw Captain Aizen conducting a Hollowfication experiment on a Shinigami."

"Upon seeing my arrival, Captain Tosen wanted to kill this Shinigami who had already been hollowed out in order to erase the evidence."

"However, I stopped it."

"Then, Captain Aizen loudly questioned me in return."

"Now it seems that those words were deliberately said by Captain Aizen to you, the Captain-Commander, in order to pin all the evil he had done on me, just like Urahara Kisuke did decades ago, trying to make me his scapegoat."

"While you were on your way here, Tosen Kaname and Gin attacked me, but I defeated them."

"And then, this is what you see now."

After listening to what Erin said, although it seemed absurd, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni preferred Erin to the letter.

Most importantly, all of this felt like such a coincidence to Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

Chapter 173 Evidence

It was as if all their actions were under the control of the enemy, and everything they heard and saw was orchestrated by some unseen entity.

However, even if Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni sensed this, he still had to act according to the rules he had set in order to maintain the order of the Seireitei before that hidden entity showed itself.

"Captain Erin, Captain Aizen..."

"Everything you two have said will be investigated by others."

“But now, I will detain all four of you for the crime of attacking a colleague. What do you have to say?”

This is how Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni responded to this incident.

Since we can't distinguish who is right and who is wrong, let's take them all down together.

The truth can be investigated gradually.

"Ah, Captain-Commander Yamamoto, I fully support your decision."

"If we can exchange our freedom for the fact that Captain Erin can no longer attack his colleagues in the Gotei 13, I am willing to be detained by you."

"I think Captain Gin Ichimaru and Captain Kaname Tosen feel the same way I do."

Upon seeing Aizen Sousuke's statement, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni looked at Erin.

Among these four, it was because of Erin's presence that he personally led several captains to come.

Because Erin's strength is not much inferior to his, given that he was able to receive an invitation from the Zero Division based on his combat power, he is at least at the level of the Seventh Kenpachi's Bankai.

"So, Captain Erin, what's your answer?"

"I'm sorry, Captain-Commander Yamamoto, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I have no intention of being detained by you."

Erin shook his head.

Just kidding.

He must have gone mad to agree to have Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni detained.

Aizen Sousuke has now completely hypnotized all the Shinigami in the entire Seireitei. Even if he is imprisoned by Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, he can easily find someone to replace him, making others think that he is imprisoned, while in reality he has jumped out of the Soul Society and is wandering around.

Where is Erin?

Unless he is willing to reveal his secret of being able to create the same Zanpakuto, once he agrees to be detained, he will really have to stay in the underground prison of Soul Society until Aizen reveals his secret.

Given the strength Erin has revealed, perhaps only the Abyss could imprison him.

Erin wouldn't be so foolish as to go to jail with Aizen's double.

"Is that so? Then it seems I must personally take action to forcibly detain you."

"boom!"

An immense spiritual pressure erupted from Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's body, and the wood chips on his cane turned into dust, revealing the true form of Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's Zanpakuto.

"and many more……"

Seeing that Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was about to make a move, Erin extended his hand, indicating that he did not want to fight Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni at the moment.

The strongest Shinigami in a millennium! In this world, apart from the fully-formed Yhwach and Ichibei Hyosube, the creator of the Zero Division, probably no one dares to say they can defeat Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

However, although Erin also wanted to fight Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, he did not want to fight under the current circumstances.

Erin didn't know why Aizen Sousuke wanted to frame him, but the more the enemy desires something, the less we should let him have it.

“Captain-Commander Yamamoto, Captain Aizen said in this letter that I researched Hollowfication experiments to save Haruko. If I can prove that what saved Haruko was not the result of Hollowfication experiments, then everything said in this letter will become nonsense.”

"You should agree with that, Captain-Commander Yamamoto, right?"

"Indeed."

At this moment, Byakuya Kuchiki spoke up.

Uncle Erin had told him about Hishin's situation before. At the time, he wanted Uncle Erin to help Hishin solve the problem of his weakened soul. However, after learning about what Uncle Erin had done to save Aunt Haruko, he never had such thoughts again.

Therefore, when Byakuya Kuchiki saw this letter at the captains' meeting, he scoffed at it.

However, because this involves the secret of Erin's uncle's "Zanpakuto, which is even more powerful than Ryujin Jakka," Kuchiki Byakuya did not make a statement.

But now that he loves his uncle and no longer hides it, Byakuya Kuchiki naturally has to stand up for his uncle.

"As far as I know, Uncle Erin specially crafted a Zanpakuto that was even more powerful than Ryujin Jakka in order to save Aunt Haruko. Aunt Haruko's current condition is being maintained by the power of that Zanpakuto."

"What? A Zanpakuto even more powerful than Ryujin Jakka?"

Kuchiki Byakuya's words completely stunned everyone present.

Even Aizen Sousuke's pupils trembled a few times.

No one would think that Byakuya Kuchiki would lie.

As Shinigami, especially the captains of the Gotei 13, who stand at the pinnacle of Seireitei, they are the ones who best understand the true value of the title "Strongest Shinigami in a Thousand Years".

Of course, even without Ryujin Jakka, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni would still be the most powerful Shinigami.

However, "Ryujin Jakka" (Flowing Blade Like Fire) made Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni even more legendary, elevating his strength to another level.

In the battle between the Shinigami and the Quincy a thousand years ago, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, with absolute power, used his Bankai to kill Yhwach, the progenitor of the Quincy, and almost destroyed the entire Soul Society with his Bankai.

That is a realm that transcends the dimension of death.

As the head of the Kuchiki family, Kuchiki Byakuya was no fool.

Even so, Byakuya Kuchiki still revealed that the Zanpakuto that saved Haruko was a powerful Zanpakuto that "surpassed Ryujin Jakka." That's quite a lot of information...

Withdrawing his spiritual pressure, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni closed his eyes again.

Indeed, as Erin said, if he could prove that Haruko Kuchiki's recovery from her weakened soul was unrelated to the Hollowfication experiment, then Aizen's letter would become evidence that Erin did not conduct the Hollowfication experiment.

Of course, what made Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni stop was that he wanted to see what kind of Zanpakuto could be described by Kuchiki Byakuya as surpassing Ryujin Jakka.

At this moment, he could feel the restlessness of the Ryujin Jakka in his hand.

That was a disagreement with what Byakuya Kuchiki had said.

As one of the oldest and most powerful Zanpakuto in Soul Society, Ryujin Jakka has its own pride.

Being defeated by Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni and submitting to him was, for Ryujin Jakka, a kind of "honor".

However, upon suddenly hearing that someone had created a Zanpakuto that "surpassed" his own, Ryujin Jakka was unwilling to accept it without seeing it for himself.

"Captain Aizen, what do you have to say?"

Now that Erin has the means to prove his innocence, Aizen will never be able to clear his name of the charge of "slandering a colleague" if he doesn't have any explanation.

Aizen Sousuke, who had just been shocked that Erin had created a weapon that surpassed Ryujin Jakka, immediately snapped back to reality when questioned by Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

At that moment, Aizen Sousuke lowered his head and smiled bitterly.

"I'm sorry, Captain-Commander Yamamoto."

"It's just because of Captain Gin Ichimaru..."

"No, it was my oversight that led me to wrong Captain Erin. If the final result proves Captain Erin's innocence, I will accept whatever punishment I am given."

"Ha ha……"

Hearing Aizen Sousuke's words, Erin sneered.

Aizen Sousuke is still putting on an act even now.

While stating that everything came from Ichimaru Gin's information, she "immediately" realized that she shouldn't have betrayed Ichimaru Gin and took all the blame upon herself.

Good green, good tea!
