Death: Then stood in the sky.

“Very good.” Shiba nodded with satisfaction. Aoji was stunned for a moment. What kind of answer was that?

"Don't blame me for asking such detailed questions."

Shiba Isshin first patted the young man on the shoulder, then said earnestly, "It's better to be interrogated by me here than to go back and be subjected to the high-pressure surveillance and interrogation by the Criminal Investigation Department."

With such a terrifyingly effective drug appearing, it was impossible for the 46th Chamber not to pay attention to it, and they even dispatched the Criminal Investigation Department to investigate Fukitake Seiji.

It's important to understand that the Executioners are no saints; they are a group of monsters who will stop at nothing to serve the Seireitei and the 46 Chambers.

Even though Ukitake Seiji is Ukitake Jushiro's younger brother, with Ukitake Jushiro standing in front of him, things will definitely not be easy for him.

Furthermore... the inability to mass-produce is actually good news, as it means the danger is manageable. Although it's bad news for Seireitei, as it means widespread availability is impossible, it better protects Seiji.

It can only be said that there are gains and losses, and everything is predetermined.

"There's still a little bit left."

Shiba Isshin took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, saying with an extremely serious look in his eyes, "You must remember this, and you must remember it firmly."

"No matter who asks you or who approaches you and asks you to hand over a certain number of [Spiritual Pressure Amplification Potions] periodically, you must resolutely refuse them."

"then......"

Shiba Isshin emphasized, "Tell them that you've given all your [Spiritual Pressure Amplification Potions] to the Shiba family. If they have any complaints, let them come at me, Shiba Isshin."

He knew that doing so would cause dissatisfaction among some people.

But it's okay.

Because sometimes men do things just to achieve a certain goal.

That's all.

Chapter 32 Then I'll Be Single for a Hundred Years

Things seem to have developed in a way that Aoji had anticipated.

If someone doesn't understand that Shiba Isshin is trying to help him shoulder this pressure when he says those words, then their emotional intelligence is so low it's almost embarrassing.

But this is good news for Aoji. With Isshin Shiba, the captain of the 10th Division and the head of a branch family of the Shiba clan among the five great noble families, supporting him, Aoji can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

However... this was bad news for Shiba Isshin, because he was essentially taking on the pressure that Seiji should have borne.

Actually... Seiji's backup plan was the two brothers, Yoruichiro Takeshiro and Kyoraku Shunsui.

However, their importance is clearly not comparable to that of Isshin Shiba, even though they are the captain's disciples.

This is the majesty of the five great noble families.

It has stood there since the beginning of Soul Society, unchanged through the ages.

“But if that’s the case…” Seiji looked at the man in front of him, “Even Captain Isshin would have a hard time.”

“If it’s too difficult, then let’s not do it at all.” Shiba Isshin was like a crow possessed, his arms crossed. “Although I usually slack off a bit, I still have some influence in Seireitei.”

Most people would choose to protect themselves in this situation, but Shiba Isshin is no ordinary person; he is an extraordinary individual.

Commonly known as a hot-blooded idiot, or simply a man.

"Seishin, may I call you that?" Shiba asked earnestly. This was not the superficial, casual relationship they had before; this was a genuine expression of intent to establish diplomatic relations.

Both are names for Aoshi, but their meanings are completely different.

“Of course, Captain Isshin.” Aoji understood Isshin Shiba’s meaning and accepted Isshin Shiba’s kindness.

Who wouldn't want to be friends with a good person?

Also, Haiyan, it seems I've decided you're my nephew.

"Just call me Isshin." Shiba Isshin laughed heartily like an older brother and patted Seiji on the shoulder. "Also, to answer your question."

Shiba said seriously, "Of course, one will face all sorts of difficulties in life."

"Someone will lend a helping hand."

“Some people will stand by indifferently.”

"In my opinion, neither approach is inherently wrong, because others don't owe you anything."

At this point, Shiba Isshin paused for a moment, then his voice became even louder: "But a true man standing between heaven and earth will always have situations where he knows it will be difficult or even that he will fail, but he still has to keep moving forward."

"When faced with difficulties, one tends to back down."

"When faced with failure, they become hesitant and afraid to step forward."

"If that's the case, then I can never forgive myself."

"Isn't it cool to shoulder your own responsibilities and help others as much as possible throughout your life?"

He burst into hearty laughter at the end.

What a generous guy.

Aoshi felt a pang of emotion, but he wasn't surprised at all, because Shiba Isshin was exactly that kind of person, and everything he did was in line with the concept of a man.

It can only be said that they are indeed from the Shiba family; they are all outliers among outliers. They can't fit in with the other four noble families at all, and they have never taken their noble status seriously.

The main family directly abandoned the five noble clans' residences in Seireitei and moved to Rukongai, acting as if they hated Soul Society and didn't want to mess with them.

Shiba Kaien only joined the 13th Division after Ukitake Jushiro personally invited him; he genuinely didn't want to have anything to do with Soul Society.

Shiba Isshin, who came from a branch family, was exactly the same. He even gave up his position as the head of the branch family and never got involved in anything of the 46th Chamber. Anyone with eyes could see that he didn't like the 46th Chamber.

The Shiba family and other noble families were destined to be apart, perhaps from the very beginning of the five great noble families.

Shiba Isshin reiterated, "Remember what I told you."

Aoshi replied, "Put everything on your head. No matter who comes to me, tell them that all the [Spiritual Pressure Amplification Drugs] have been supplied to the Shiba family, so that they can come to you if they have any problems."

Shiba crossed his arms and nodded in satisfaction.

Aoji continued, "No matter what happens, I'll report your name. Everything was your instruction. It's all the fault of Shiba Isshin, the head of the Shiba branch family. All my actions are based on his accusations..."

Shiba Isshin suddenly broke out in a sweat, and his blood pressure began to spike.

Seeing that Aoshi's words were getting more and more frightening, he quickly stopped her: "There's no need for that last sentence. Please don't mention my name in every incident. It's kind of scary."

He wiped away non-existent sweat from his forehead and suddenly realized that this guy's abstract style was starting to resemble his own.

Although I had already vaguely sensed that this kid was a bit difficult to deal with, I didn't expect him to be this persistent.

I don't know why Rangiku can tolerate this guy. You know, Rangiku has a temper that isn't exactly good, but after all this time, she hasn't been driven crazy or broken down and killed him.

That's very strange.

"Huh? But didn't Captain Isshin say that this was all done under your orders?" Aoji asked seriously.

To avoid being accused of any more terrible crimes, Shiba Isshin quickly stood up and changed the subject: "That's enough about your business for now. Next up are the two girls."

Pushing open the door and walking down the empty hallway of the apartment, Shiba Isshin asked, "What's the deal with that human Quincy girl?"

His tone was relaxed, showing no regard for the other party's Quincy identity.

Compared to the dangerous skills that Aoji possesses, they are actually not that important—at least that's how Shiba Isshin sees it.

One is that the clan is so small that it can be almost ignored, and the only mistake they made was to purify the Hollow without the permission of the Grim Reaper, but Shiba is too lazy to care about such things.

That masked girl was truly bizarre.

Despite being an Adjuchas-class Arrancar, he has absolutely no fighting ability.

Yes, Shiba Isshin's judgment is that Nel is an Adjuchas-class Arrancar.

The basis for this is that Vasto Lordes are not commonly seen in the history of Soul Society; they are legendary beings.

Furthermore, Nel is unusually weak, so it's impossible for her to be Vastod... right?

LOL, if this were Vasto Lorde, he'd be a bachelor for a hundred years. That's what Shiba Isshin said.

“Just like you see,” Seiji continued, “it’s simply about protecting ordinary people from the harm of the Void.”

Shiba Isshin couldn't help but retort, "Isn't that a magical girl?"

Aoshi couldn't help but glance at him sideways: "I didn't expect you to be watching this."

Shiba Isshin gave an awkward smile, wanting nothing more than to scratch his foot. "You got off too fast, you bastard!"

"I'm not a magical girl!"

At that moment, the girl's clear voice rang out.

Masaki Kurosaki angrily leaned against the glass window of the door frame and shouted, "I am a Quincy!"

Shiba Isshin was so terrified by that face that suddenly appeared on the glass that he almost peed his pants on the spot, which is why he said—I hate this kind of sudden face-killing!

Chapter 33 The lecherous boss is getting restless.

Shiba, enraged, flung open the door. "You've committed a serious crime, do you know that?"

Masaki Kurosaki blinked and turned to look at Seiji.

Seiji readily agreed: "What I mean is that you've overstepped your bounds. Purifying Hollows is the work of Shinigami. Without the permission of Shinigami, no Quincy can meddle in other people's business."

Shiba nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that he and Aoji really got along well, and even their teamwork was so tacit.

Then he heard Aoshi whisper, "Hurry up and cry."

Masaki Kurosaki: "Huh?"

Why are you crying?

Why are you crying?

Also, how did she even manage to cry...?

Although Masaki Kurosaki didn't understand, she respected her decision. She took a deep breath and looked like she was about to cry.

But unfortunately, I couldn't cry.

The helpful Aoshi could only lend her a hand.

"Waaaaah!"

"It hurts!!!"

Masaki Kurosaki covered her bottom, which had been pinched hard, and cried with tears in her eyes.

How could you do that to such a tender spot!

She felt it was already swollen!

absolute!

Aoji looked at Shiba Isshin: "You see, she has realized that she was wrong."

Zhibo remained silent, his expression revealing a deep contemplation of life.

I can't understand why I feel like I'm being treated like an idiot, and that I've become the villain who bullies little girls. It must be my imagination.

Just then, Zennosuke Kurumatani suddenly ran over looking completely distraught, shouting as he ran, "Someone help me! I can't take it anymore! She keeps yelling and screaming, saying she wants to find Seiji, that we're going to hurt Seiji. No matter what I say, she won't listen. She even spat at me."

Behind him, Nil's short legs grew into a turbocharger capable of making a helicopter fly, her wailing causing the entire building to shake slightly.

"Aoji!"

"They're definitely going to hurt you, and I absolutely won't allow that to happen!"

Aoji could only stretch out his arms to prepare for Nel to come over.

"Seiji! Waaaaah! I found you!"

"Super acceleration!!!"

The pink light on Niru's mask flashed and disappeared.

next second.
