Shirou's clones number 30 million

Kurosaki Ichigo was speechless. He had just been shocked by the big scoop he had just heard, and then suddenly this question came out: what is true and what is false?

"So it was fake. I thought the vice-captain of Soul Society couldn't even afford a house."

“No, it’s not exactly fake.” Hinamori Momo suddenly spoke up. “I’m also a vice-captain, but I also live in the unit’s base.”

It was true!

Kurosaki Ichigo looked at Hinamori Momo in shock. He had thought she was just a follower, but he never expected her to be the vice-captain. He had no idea.

Moreover, she was also struggling with financial problems.

"Soul Society... it doesn't feel quite the same as I imagined. Shouldn't the place where the dead live be completely free from these practical issues?"

"Well... wherever there are people, there are conflicts of interest, and these conflicts are all the same."

Aizen smiled, stopped, and said in a deep voice:

"We've arrived. So, whether we can solve the Fifth Division's financial problems for the next few decades depends on today."

"You've finally said what's on your mind! Hey...!" Kurosaki Ichigo couldn't help but retort.

Chapter 354 If I can't protect my family... what's going on?

Chapter 354, Section 355: If I can't protect my family... what's going on?

Knock knock...!

Hearing the knock on the door, Kurosaki Yuko quickly came out and spoke.

However, due to her low spiritual power, she could not see Aizen, Hinamori Momo, or Kurosaki Ichigo's spirit; she could only see Kurosaki Ichigo's body floating in mid-air.

"Brother! What's wrong with you? Why are you unconscious and floating in the air? Am I dreaming?"

Kurosaki Yuuko tried to jump up and pull Kurosaki Ichigo down, but bumped into Hinamori Momo, causing her to instinctively reach out and grab Kurosaki Yuuko.

"What is that? Is there some unseen person there?"

Seeing this, Aizen reached out and tapped her forehead, instantly clearing Kurosaki Yuuko's vision.

Seeing the two people in their Shinigami uniforms and their two older brothers floating in the air, he stopped struggling.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

"Sorry, Yuuki, I've been arrested too." Kurosaki Ichigo smiled awkwardly, but he wasn't too worried.

Having asked him questions the whole way, he now roughly understands what kind of person Aizen is, and also his purpose this time.

Compared to those ruthless and unreasonable Hollows, Aizen probably just wanted to take the opportunity to extort some money this time.

Let Dad handle this.

Of course, it would be even better if he had other solutions.

Hearing the commotion at the door, Masaki Kurosaki, wearing an apron and holding a rice spoon, came out.

Upon seeing the group of people at the door, his expression changed slightly, and he immediately asked warily:

"Who are you? Why are you holding my son and daughter?"

"Mom, he's the captain of the 13th Division of Soul Society. He's here to extort... no, to arrest us."

While speaking, Ichigo Kurosaki kept giving Masaki Kurosaki meaningful glances, signaling her not to resist.

"I wonder what Ichigo did that warranted such a big fuss from you two."

Upon seeing Ichigo Kurosaki's spirit form dressed in Shinigami robes, Masaki Kurosaki had a vague idea.

“Ichigo Kurosaki is only one aspect. Our main target this time is Isshin Shiba,” Aizen said in a deep voice. “Isshin Shiba illegally mated with a human and gave birth to three children. This violates the prohibitions of Soul Society and tramples on the boundary between life and death.”

Masaki Kurosaki's face turned deathly pale, and her mood plummeted.

If that's the case, then it's troublesome.

Even if we manage to get rid of these two Grim Reapers, there will definitely be more coming.

"In that case, could you please release my two children? Let's sit down and talk things over."

"Okay, but I must remind Ms. Kurosaki that you and your three children are all targets for capture."

"why?"

"Because they are the children born of the living and the dead, and the product of the convergence of Quincy and Shinigami, I don't need to explain the rest in detail, right?"

As they were talking, Aizen released Ichigo Kurosaki and his sister from their restraints and sat down in the Kurosaki family's living room on his own.

"Call Shiba Isshin back. By the way, don't even think about running away. I've already set up a barrier outside the Kurosaki residence that allows entry but not exit."

"Ichigo, call your dad and tell him to come back."

Masaki Kurosaki went to the kitchen, put down the cooking utensils, and came out with a freshly brewed cup of tea.

"Thank you."

Hinamori Momo accepted the tea and thanked her repeatedly, while unconsciously glancing at Aizen.

“It’s not poisonous, drink it.” Aizen picked up the teacup and took a small sip.

No, that's not what I meant.

This is, after all, enemy territory.

"It's just ordinary tea, please don't stand on ceremony." Kurosaki Masaki paused for a moment, then asked cautiously, "I wonder what Soul Society plans to do with our family?"

"Go ask Ichigo. I already told him once, and I have no interest in repeating myself." After her son finished the call, Masaki Kurosaki immediately called him into the inner room and asked him about the whole story.

Hearing Ichigo Kurosaki recount everything made him feel much more at ease.

That means there are ways to deal with being captured and taken to Soul Society.

In this regard, we can only rely on the husband's connections.

After all, as a Quincy, she had never been to the Soul Society.

Soon after, Kurosaki Isshin burst into the house from outside.

"What kind of man is he if he can't protect his family?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that his wife, son, and two daughters were sitting on the sofa with Aizen, drinking tea and chatting.

"What's going on? I thought you had already been killed."

"Yo...long time no see, Captain Isshin." Aizen greeted him with a light laugh.

"Aizen! What are you doing in my house?"

"What? Didn't Ichigo just tell you? I'm here on the orders of the Captain-Commander to capture the entire Kurosaki family."

"Seriously?"

"Of course, I wouldn't joke about something like that."

"Could you please pretend you didn't see us, for my sake?"

"You can't convince people with just empty words."

"In that case, it seems we have no choice but to fight. It's been a long time since we've sparred; I wonder if your skills have declined?"

Kurosaki Isshin instantly transformed into a spirit clad in a Shinigami uniform, his blade aimed directly at Aizen.

"Wait until I finish drinking."

Aizen reached out and pinched his Zanpakuto between two fingers.

"How could the gap have become so big?" Kurosaki Isshin kept exerting his strength, but his Zanpakuto didn't budge an inch. It wasn't until Aizen finished drinking a cup of tea that he grabbed the sword and took several steps back.

"Swastika..."

In that instant, an extremely strong spiritual pressure suddenly came from behind him. The feeling that it could take his life at any moment made Kurosaki feel extremely uneasy.

Looking back, Aizen, who had been sitting on the sofa just moments before, was now standing behind him, holding a knife to his neck.

"How could you be this strong? Even the Captain-Commander doesn't have this kind of strength, right?"

"Well... after three days apart, one should look at a person with new eyes."

Aizen smiled and said again:

"So, do you want me to knock you out and carry you back with me? Or are you coming back to Soul Society with me?"

"Could you give us a few days to prepare? Let us mentally prepare ourselves and also take care of some everyday matters. At the very least, I have so many patients' appointments that I need to call and cancel them one by one."

"As I've said before, empty words won't convince anyone. If you want to persuade someone, you need to present supporting documentation."

"Negotiation? I know about your conflict with Urahara, but I really can't help you. I've retired now, so at most I'll just stay out of it."

"Who asked you to help me? Besides, retiring isn't that easy."

"Then what do you want?"

Kurosaki Ichigo watched with extreme anxiety, thinking to himself:

Dad, what's wrong with you? How come you know less about Aizen than I do?

"Mr. Aizen, could you please release my father and let me have a word with him?"

“Alright, anyway, with the barrier in place, you can't escape.” Aizen sheathed his sword, sat back down on the sofa, and poured himself a cup of tea.

Upon seeing this, Kurosaki Ichigo quickly ran to his father's side, whispered in his ear, and repeated what Aizen had said earlier.

Chapter 355 I didn't expect anyone would still be interested in my little thing.

Chapter 355, Section 356: I didn't expect anyone would still be interested in my little thing.

While remaining silent, Kurosaki Isshin cast a strange glance at Aizen.

Despite decades of friendship and even numerous clashes, I never imagined Aizen would be this kind of person.

Speaking of Aizen, he has always been perceived as eccentric and out of place with his surroundings.

He doesn't flaunt his abilities, yet he possesses a strong presence that makes him hard to ignore.

"How is the Shiba family doing now?"

“I don’t know. Since you disappeared, the Shiba family has no registered Shinigami and has therefore lost its qualification to enter the Seireitei.” Aizen paused and sighed, “Speaking of which, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen anyone from the Shiba family.”
