Death's Hidden Mobile

Xia Yan said, "Thank you, Captain Unohana, for keeping this letter safe."

Retsu Unohana waved her hand and said, "I'm doing this for the Seireitei. Now that Aizen has done what you said and is targeting Rukia, what do you plan to do?"

Xia Yan said with a smile, "I have a plan, but before I can carry it out, I must contact the Captain-Commander. First, I need to prove Aizen's guilt."

Retsu Unohana frowned and said, "But Aizen is already dead, and his body is being sent to the Fourth Division."

Xia Yan said, "Captain Unohana can examine his body and find that it is fake."

"Okay, once it's verified, I'll take you to see the captain."

Retsu Unohana did not go immediately, after all, the matter was of great importance and every point had to be verified.

Xia Yan's death proves the possibility of his letter, and Rukia's arrest also proves that things are true.

However, whether the source of everything can be traced back to Aizen still requires decisive evidence.

This evidence can be obtained by examining Aizen's corpse.

If Aizen is the murderer, then his body is fake. Therefore, proving that the body is fake would prove that Aizen is the murderer.

Soon, Aizen's body was delivered, and Retsu Unohana went out of the house alone to investigate.

Many Shinigami followed, including the captain of the 10th Division, Toshiro Hitsugaya, but not Momo Hinamori. Some time ago, Momo Hinamori believed that Aizen was killed by Gin Ichimaru and fought with Ichimaru's vice-captain, Izuru Kira. She was stopped by Toshiro Hitsugaya and arrested and imprisoned.

"It really was fake."

Retsu Unohana examines Aizen's body and discovers some strange things.

In the original story, she only noticed something amiss and went to see Aizen. Now, after careful investigation, she discovered that there were more suspicious points about the corpse. It was not a human body at all, but a spirit skeleton, a very realistic spirit skeleton.

It seems that everything Xia Yan said was true.

However, Retsu Unohana remained calm and said to Toshiro Hitsugaya, "Unfortunately, Captain Aizen is indeed dead. His two pressure points, the Lock and the Sleep, were attacked, and he was pierced by his own Zanpakuto."

Hitsugaya Toshiro opened his mouth, and after a long while, he said, "I'll go report this to the Captain-Commander."

Hitsugaya Toshiro and Aizen had a fairly good relationship. They had watched the New Year's fireworks together, and Hinamori Momo was both Aizen's vice-captain and Hitsugaya Toshiro's childhood friend.

Retsu Unohana quickly said, "I'll go instead. I'm more familiar with Captain Aizen's injuries."

"Alright, then I'll leave it to Captain Unohana. I'll go investigate the culprit."

Hitsugaya Toshiro said this and quickly ran out.

Retsu Unohana turned and left the Fourth Division to find the Captain-Commander.

Natsuhiko followed Retsu Unohana as they left the Fourth Division and arrived at the First Division barracks.

The First Division's barracks occupy the largest area, especially the main barracks, which are incredibly tall and resemble a palace.

When Unohana Retsu arrived at the squad, she met Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni in the back room. Upon seeing Unohana Retsu, the latter asked, "Did you examine Aizen's body?"

Unohana Retsu nodded and said, "It's been checked."

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni asked, "What are the injuries?"

Unohana Retsu didn't speak. Instead, she took out a letter and handed it to Captain-Commander Yamamoto, saying, "Captain-Commander, this is a letter that Natsuhiko gave me thirty-four years ago."

"Xia Yan? That brat."

Captain-Commander Yamamoto had a deep impression of Natsuhiko; his ability to fight Kenpachi Zaraki was enough to catch his attention.

Yamamoto Genryusai took the letter and read it carefully. As time passed, his expression grew colder and colder. Finally, he asked, "Is this a letter from thirty-four years ago?"

Retsu Unohana said, "That's right. It was given to me by Natsuhiko 34 years ago after he encountered a Hollow attack that could nullify lightning energy. I opened it 4 years later and found out that he might not be dead. So I waited until now to hand it over to the Captain-Commander."

Yamamoto Genryusai frowned and said, "But the information about Tosen Kaname is incorrect. He died thirty years ago. He was attacked in that incident, which can prove his words to some extent, but based on this alone, I cannot determine whether a captain is guilty. More importantly, Aizen is dead."

Retsu Unohana said, "He's not dead. That's fake. It's a spirit."

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni looked up at her and asked, "You're saying it's fake?"

Retsu Unohana nodded and said, "The spirit body is very realistic, but if I hadn't been prepared, I would definitely have been deceived by Aizen."

Captain-Commander Yamamoto narrowed his eyes and said, "Could all of this have been done by Aizen? Especially that little guy who came with you, come out here."

Yamamoto Genryusai looked at the open space where Natsuhiko's figure slowly appeared and called out, "Captain-Commander."

"Xia Yan? You're not dead?" Yamamoto was slightly surprised to see Xia Yan.

Xia Yan nodded and said, "I didn't die. I left some arrangements that allowed me to survive."

Captain-Commander Yamamoto frowned and asked, "What exactly happened? What is the Hogyoku? What is the truth behind what happened 101 years ago?"

Xia Yan said, "Captain-Commander, there's a long story behind this. If Captain-Commander Yamamoto wants to hear it, I can tell you the whole story."

"Go ahead and tell me, I have plenty of time."

Captain-Commander Yamamoto nodded, signaling for Natsuhiko to speak.

Xia Yan sat down, and Unohana Retsu sat down beside him. Xia Yan slowly recounted the events, including the captain's Hollowfication incident 101 years ago and Urahara Kisuke being framed, how he discovered Aizen, how he made arrangements, how he escaped to the human world, encountered the Visoreds, and how he returned.

After Xia Yan finished explaining the whole story, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni sighed and said, "So that's how it is."

Xia Yan immediately said, "Therefore, I hope Captain-Commander Yamamoto will assist me in killing Aizen and prevent him from surviving."

Captain-Commander Yamamoto looked at Xia Yan and said, "Your letter and Aizen's corpse can prove what you said. But there's only one thing: if we make an assumption, all your inferences will be invalid."

Xia Yan looked at Yamamoto and asked, "What assumption?"

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni said with a dark face, "That is to say, Urahara Kisuke is indeed the murderer, and you are his inside man."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yanteng stood up abruptly, while Unohana Retsu frowned. To be continued.

Chapter 123: The Abyss (Fifth Update)

Xia Yan hadn't expected the Captain to doubt him, but he didn't try to convince others. Instead, he stood up and said, "Captain, how can you make me believe you?"

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni looked at Xia Yan and said, "It's simple, capture Aizen, make him reveal himself, and then interrogate him."

Xia Yan frowned and said, "But you're under the spell of 'Mirror Flower Water Moon,' so you can't see him at all. Moreover, his strength is so great that no one except the Captain-General can rival him. To be honest, if you try to capture him, you'll only be wiped out."

Yamamoto snorted and said, "Kid, are you looking down on the Gotei 13?"

Xia Yan took a breath and looked at Yamamoto, saying, "Captain-Commander, I'm just stating the facts. You haven't met him, so you don't know how strong he is."

Aizen only ever cared about two people: Yamamoto and Urahara Kisuke. Apart from them, no one else ever received his attention.

He can instantly kill a captain-level powerhouse, let alone use his abilities.

Yamamoto Genryusai said, "This matter is of great importance and cannot be taken lightly. After all, you have made contact with the captains from 101 years ago."

Yamamoto Genryusai was thinking a lot. What if Urahara Kisuke was the one pulling the strings behind the scenes? What if the captains who had become Hollows were also involved in this?

If Yamamoto Genryusai follows Natsuhiko, the greatest fighting force will be tied down, and Urahara Kisuke's attack on Seireitei will have even more serious consequences.

There is a lot of evidence that Aizen was behind it all, but if we change the person behind it to Kisuke Urahara, then everything makes more sense.

For example, Aizen did die, but was replaced by Kisuke Urahara's spirit body; Kaname Tosen was also controlled by Kisuke Urahara; Metastasia and Ramirez Hollows were also created by Kisuke Urahara; and Natsuhiko was Kisuke Urahara's inside man.

This explains everything, and considering his guilt 101 years ago, it actually makes even more sense.

Xia Yan was somewhat troubled when Unohana Retsu suddenly said, "You said you could defeat Aizen? And that Aizen's fighting strength is no less than that of the Captain-Commander."

Xia Yan hesitated for a moment before saying, "My explosive power can indeed surpass Aizen's level, which should be enough for a fight."

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni said, "If it's true, then it proves that you are no less than me and possess the same strength as me. Together with the former captain, the Great Demon Master, the Vice Demon Master, and Yoruichi of the Shihouin family, you would be more than capable of launching a direct attack on Seireitei."

The Masked Legion has four captains, three vice-captains, and one vice-master of the Ghost Dao.

In addition, Kisuke Urahara is the captain, and there are Yoruichi Shihouin and Tessai Katsuhiko.

Such a force is extremely powerful. If Xia Yan can defeat Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, then the remaining people are enough to defeat the current Seireitei.

After all, Kenpachi Zaraki hasn't broken the seal, and Retsu Unohana won't make a move.

Furthermore, Byakuya Kuchiki's spiritual pressure did not increase, and Renji Abarai did not become a Super Captain-level fighter.

Yoruichi was once the God of Fleeting Moments, Kisuke Urahara can modify Hollows and has endless means, and Tessai Gahishi can use forbidden techniques such as time stop and space teleportation.

Therefore, as long as Xia Yan can contend with the Captain-Commander, there is no need to resort to any schemes or tricks; a straightforward victory is sufficient.

Yamamoto Genryusai said, "Furthermore, if it is true, as you say, that Aizen is the mastermind behind everything, and you need to take action yourself, then you need to have sufficient strength. So, kid, show me your strength."

Xia Yan frowned and said, "But if we expose our spiritual pressure, Aizen will notice."

“It’s simple, let’s fight in the Infernal Realm,” Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni said slowly.

Avici, the eighth prison in the underground prison system, is an even more terrifying prison than the Palace of Penitence, where death gods with serious crimes are imprisoned.

The Mugen is located beneath the headquarters barracks, a place where spiritual pressure cannot be leaked. It is where Retsu Unohana and Kenpachi Zaraki later fought, and Aizen was also imprisoned there.

As long as you reach Mugen, Aizen will not notice you.

Would you like to test your abilities?

Yamamoto Genryusai looked at Xia Yan, ready to capture him if Xia Yan refused.

However, Xia Yan smiled and said, "Alright, I'd like to test my strength. After all, I haven't met an opponent who allows me to fully unleash my power."

In the real world, the Visoreds trained with him, and Kunan Shiro's strength was equivalent to his own after he was Hollowfied and used Hakuda.

Kensei Muguruma and Rai Aikawa could have been dealt with by using their Twin Lightning Wings Hollowfication.

Hirako Shinji himself could also solve the problem using electromagnetic pulses.

Neither Kensei Muguruma nor Rao Aikawa could give themselves a truly satisfying fight.

Xia Yan was looking forward to the battle with the Captain-Commander and to testing his own strength.

"it is good."

Yamamoto Genryusai slammed his cane on the ground, and the next moment, a figure walked into the room. It was none other than the vice-captain of the First Division, Sasakibe no Nakajiro.

"Captain, what do you want?"

Chojiro Sasaki entered the room and looked at Yamamoto, asking a question.

"I'm going to the Abyss. You need to move the main force members away and leave the passage leading to the Abyss," Yamamoto Genryusai said.

Although the Captain-Commander suspected Natsuhiko, he did not completely deny Natsuhiko's words. Therefore, in order to avoid attracting the attention of the hidden Aizen, he tried not to let too many people notice that they were going to Mugen.

Chojiro immediately left to do it, and after a while, he returned to report. Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni then asked him to leave as well.

Afterwards, Yamamoto, along with Retsu Unohana and Natsuhiko, went to the Infernal Realm.
