Shirou's clones number 30 million

But Byakuya Kuchiki, as the eldest brother, showed no mercy and killed her in one fell swoop.

Although that's just a storyline in the manga, considering the Yorozuya manga volume with even more subsequent plot developments, what the manga describes is likely something that actually happens in another timeline.

"Dad, don't Rukia and her older brother Kuchiki Byakuya get along well?"

Why are you suddenly asking this?

"Well... I've never seen them sitting together. And when they bump into each other during meetings, they just nod and say hello, like complete strangers."

"You've misunderstood. This is how things usually work within large families. Besides, Captain Kuchiki is a serious person who likes to take everything seriously."

As he spoke, Kurosaki Isshin unconsciously glanced at Kuchiki Byakuya, who was sitting in the distance with the members of the Sixth Division.

"To be honest, they seem to have a pretty good relationship, right? I'm not too sure, you can ask Rukia directly."

"Given your relationship, she probably wouldn't hide anything from you."

Kurosaki Ichigo was speechless, and couldn't help but say:

"That sounds really awkward, like there's something improper between us, when we're just ordinary friends."

"Is that right?"

Kurosaki Isshin chuckled softly, patted him on the shoulder, and then shook his head.

"The Fifth Division has already started drinking. Why don't you go and have a few drinks too?"

"Huh...? I'm not even 20 yet, so I can't drink?"

"I give permission, go ahead!"

Kurosaki Isshin smiled slightly and then said:

"Or are you going to just stand by and watch Rukia, the vice-captain, get drunk and end up lying on her way back?"

Ichigo Kurosaki unconsciously looked into the distance, where people were constantly toasting Rukia. Although she accepted every toast, as someone who had lived with her for so long, he knew very well that it was just her being stubborn and unable to refuse.

"That idiot! He could have used his female identity as an excuse to drink tea instead of alcohol."

"What kind of talk is that? As the vice-captain, and someone who likes to show off like that, how could he possibly use that as an excuse to show weakness to his subordinates?"

"Dad, although I'm not yet 20, today should be an exception."

“Yes, as your father, I give my permission. Go.”

As soon as Ichigo left, Toshiro Hitsugaya came over with a sake cup in his hand.

"Captain Isshin, it's been a long time since we've had a drink together. On behalf of the current Tenth Division, I'd like to offer you a toast."

"We've been talking for so long, but we've never had a drink together. I remember you used to dislike drinking, didn't you?"

After Hitsugaya Toshiro sat down, Kurosaki Isshin clinked glasses with him.

"I don't like it now either, but I'm really powerful when I've had a few drinks. I can make that annoying Aizen avoid me."

She actually blurted out these innermost thoughts; is she already drunk?

Kurosaki Isshin couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"That's really impressive, to the point that Captain Aizen had to back down."

"That's right, once I've had a drink, I can't see him anymore. Otherwise, he's always on my mind, which is extremely annoying."

"Ha ha......"

Chapter 522 Did I say something wrong again?

Chapter 522, Section 523: Did I say something wrong again?

Several days later, Orihime Inoue returned to the First Division's base.

Although the training was postponed and the graduation standards became very high, she still came as previously agreed.

"So? Have you learned Instant Step yet?"

As soon as Inoue Orihime entered the room, Hinamori Momo immediately asked her questions.

"I already know how to use it, but due to insufficient spiritual power, I'm not very proficient yet and can't use it too many times."

"Once you know how to use it, you'll naturally become proficient over time."

Hinamori Momo took the booklet, flipped through a few pages, and asked again:

"Besides Instant Step, have you learned anything else?"

"Yes, besides Shunpo, Aizen-sensei also taught me Kido techniques numbered 1 to 15 and basic swordsmanship."

"Have you been learning from Captain Aizen for the past three days?"

"Ah."

"Captain Aizen personally taught you? Without relying on anyone else?"

"Ah."

"How is this possible?"

Hinamori Momo muttered to herself, her gaze towards Inoue Orihime filled with curiosity.

Even though she was nominally his disciple, Captain Aizen only gave her a few verbal instructions and basically left her to train on her own.

But now, why is he going to such lengths to personally guide this young girl?

"Are you related to Captain Aizen?"

Orihime Inoue looked bewildered and shook her head, not understanding what was going on.

"no."

"Then why is he so good to you? Even at the banquet last night, he kept you with him?"

Hinamori Momo muttered a few words under her breath, then looked away and asked:

"So, did Captain Aizen tell me what I should do with you?"

“Master Aizen said that I haven’t reached the standard for graduation yet and need to continue training. However, continuous training is not suitable, so he asked me to try taking on some simple tasks so that I can train and work at the same time.”

"I see..."

Hinamori Momo unconsciously thought of what happened last night. Every time she looked at Captain Aizen, she would see him chatting with the girl in front of her.

Clearly, the two have a very special relationship, one that is the envy of many.

"A simple task? Then... this one will do."

Hinamori Momo tapped the table lightly and slowly began to speak:

“You also attended the banquet last night. The one-day banquet has now ended, and all the plastic bags and trash left on the ground need to be cleaned up.”

"Understood." Inoue Orihime nodded repeatedly.

"I haven't finished speaking yet."

Hinamori Momo emphasized this point, then added:

"I've already hired temporary workers from the Seireitei to handle the cleaning. Your job is to supervise them and make sure they don't secretly take away tables, chairs, or anything like that. Those are very important assets."

"Also, we prepared way too much food last night. If there's anything unopened or intact, please remember to bring it back."

"I see." Inoue Orihime nodded slightly. "People shouldn't be hoarding things like tables and chairs, right? But it's food that might be taken away by someone."

"Small-scale theft of food is nothing to worry about. The main concern is that some people might profit from it. Whether it's food or tables and chairs, they can make a fortune by taking them to Rukongai."

"Huh...? Yes, I understand."

Although she didn't think such a thing would happen, it was her first job after all, so Orihime Inoue naturally took it very seriously.

Since I was doing the work of a supervisor, I didn't have to do the cleaning work.

It was precisely because of this that she personally experienced the nobility of the Grim Reaper's status.

Even a newcomer like myself, dressed in a Shinigami uniform, would inspire awe in children when walking down the street.

Hearing two children discussing taking some unfamiliar snacks home, he intended to offer them some, but before he could even get close, he scared them away.

Of course, this couldn't be because of his appearance; it must be because of his Death Knight outfit.

Moreover, this was in Seireitei, a place where Shinigami (death gods) gather. If it were in the Rukongai (outside town), she really couldn't imagine what the scene would be like.

Under the spotlight, yet kept at a distance?

"Lord Inoue, all the food has been prepared intact. Please inspect it."

"Don't call me 'sir'..."

Noticing the other person's expression, Inoue Orihime sighed inwardly.

I didn't pay much attention last night, but now it seems that the class gap within the Seireitei is greater than I imagined.

The Grim Reaper and the non-Grim Reaper are worlds apart.

To avoid becoming the Grim Reaper, one must always be cautious and prudent.

"Huh...? It seems like there's some missing?"

Upon hearing this, the man's face turned deathly pale, and his body seemed to begin to tremble.

Upon seeing this, Inoue Orihime quickly changed her words:

"Don't worry about it. It was probably taken by a child. That's all. Are the tables and chairs all there? I think the table legs have numbers on them. No one would be stupid enough to take them secretly."

"I'm very sorry, Lord Inoue, the tables and chairs haven't been fully inventoried yet. Please give us a little more time."

"Oh, then I'll wait a little longer."

As she spoke, Inoue Orihime unconsciously glanced at the neatly arranged tables and chairs, thinking to herself:

Haven't we already counted them several times?

......

At dusk, at the First Division's base.

"Okay, let's do it this way."

After listening to the mission report, Hinamori Momo nodded slightly and then took out a document.
