Death God: Sunny and Cheerful Boy

But if you think about it carefully, his words and deeds are expressing that he is a "non-stick pan".

But Soi-Feng didn't buy his nonsense and corrected him directly: "I'm asking you! Did you see it?"

"I saw it... but I didn't look closely! After all, Captain Aizen is in my heart, but he ranks second after you, the captain I admire. How could I have the mind to look closely at him at that time?" Yilong said sincerely.

Soi-Fong glanced at Ichiryu expressionlessly, and then said only one sentence: "Be careful of the people from the 12th Division, go and complain to the captain-general." After that, she turned around and left in an instant.

It looks like he will have to take the lead and work the night shift to continue patrolling the Soul Society.

Regardless of whether the trip was for disaster or not, her main purpose was to "find a cat".

And Yilong shouted at Soi-Fong's back: "Don't worry, Captain! I sent someone to deliver the evidence of his crime to the captain-general before I took action!"

Of course, even so, Yilong didn't think that the captain would have no reaction.

However, Yilong also didn't believe that the people from the 12th Division would go and "report something".

After all, the captain-general didn't know about many of Kurotsuchi Mayuri's experiments, or he pretended not to know.

In addition, many key personnel in the Technology Development Bureau were released from the Maggot Nest, or were people who should have been locked up there...

Therefore, neither Kurotsuchi Mayuri himself nor his subordinates would think of "using the rules of the 13th Division to protect their own rights and interests", but would rather hope that the captain-general would not see them!

That night, the Second Division received an urgent message from the Thirteenth Division, informing them of the news that Aizen had been attacked and died, but Ichiryu did not wait for Sister Hua to officially announce the cause of Aizen's death...

"Sure enough, Sister Hua is still somewhat aware of it." Yilong muttered, obviously not thinking that this was a delay caused by a lack of ability.

However, Unohana Retsu had already been hit by the [Mirror Flower and Water Moon], which was not enough to see through the illusion, so he was unable to raise direct doubts, and the news of Aizen's death was still announced!

"Lord Yilong, the alert level of the 13th Division has been raised. The captain has not returned yet. Should we command the 2nd Division to join the search for the disaster?" Weihuohu came to ask for instructions.

"No need. The secret mobile force is already short of manpower. The entire squad is on full alert for the maggot nest. It would be terrible if the real purpose of those travelers is to release the criminals." Yilong said cautiously at this time.

As a secret mobile unit, the "Maggot Nest" is located in the basement of the Second Division, where those who once joined the Thirteenth Division or other combat units but were judged to be "dangerous people" are imprisoned.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi was rescued from here by Urahara...

It can be called the youth version of "Infernal Affairs".

"Yes!" Weihuohu naturally executed Yilong's orders unconditionally.

……

The next day, early in the morning of August 8, Yilong was still sleeping under the watch of Yushiro when a Hell Butterfly flew in.

Yilong woke up naturally after sensing something. After receiving the information from the Hell Butterfly that had landed on his shoulder, he got up, dressed himself, and put on his broken glasses. He looked as if he had been attacked, and went all the way to the squadron's barracks.

At this time, the third seat of the First Division, Okiga Genshiro, was already waiting at the door.

The captain, vice-captain, third seat of the first team... are all old guys. Not to mention Yamamoto Shigekuni, although the vice-captain Chojiro Sumire looks like a middle-aged man, he is actually an old guy who participated in the holy war a thousand years ago. He had mastered Bankai a thousand years ago, and his strength is not weaker than that of ordinary captains. He even sneaked up on Yhwach and injured him. His achievements are outstanding.

Although Sanxi is not older than Chojiro, he looks older, with slicked-back hair, white hair and beard, and only a strand of hair on the right side is bleached and dyed black.

"Vice Captain Shifengyuan, please."

49. Chapter 49: I’m Afraid of Comparison

49.

The third seat, Genshiro, led Yilong all the way outside the tea room - it was obvious that the captain only wanted him to come this time.

When Yilong came in, he found the captain with his back to him, drinking alone...

Of course, the drink is tea!

At the current alert level, all members of the 13th Division are prohibited from drinking alcohol.

Although he is old, Yamamoto has a very broad back.

He is obviously just a warrior...

"Are you thinking that this old man, who is obviously just a warrior, has now learned to show off his tea art with the nobles?" Yamamoto suddenly said.

"Huh? A mere warrior? Captain Yamamoto? How is that possible... How can the captain be the same as those nobles? Your tea art also implies martial arts, it should be called Kung Fu tea, which is of course different from aristocratic tea!" Yilong pretended to be surprised when he heard this, and then immediately complimented him.

"What's going on with the 12th Division? I should have said it before. If there is any more internal strife..." Yamamoto said, his tone obviously becoming heavier.

"That's right! You are the person I respect the most in the 13th Division, so I was going to settle the matter with Kurotsuchi Mayuri about using the officers of the Supervisory Corps to conduct illegal spirit experiments later, but I didn't expect...

"Captain Kurotsuchi Mayuri actually used his soldiers as human bombs, and said that you, the captain-general, allowed it, and even encouraged him, saying that this was the same as when you founded the Maou Spiritual Academy and taught students to kill people with swords. There would be casualties, so there was no need to worry...

"Of course I went up to argue with him, but he overreacted, so I had to help him calm down first! But don't worry, Captain, Captain Mayuri is fine. I remembered the captain's teachings, and after he left, I stopped attacking and did not restrain him by force to prevent the conflict from escalating." Yilong explained his actions.

As for the “evidence”…

Yilong submitted it yesterday, and I believe Yamamoto has already seen it.

"Really? But... I didn't expect you to be able to defeat Mayuri Kurotsuchi." Yamamoto said meaningfully.

Even though this old man always makes some inexplicable decisions, he is also resourceful. Thousands of years ago, taking advantage of the holy war, with the support of the nobles, he led a group of "demons and monsters" to form the Gotei 13, and created a place for non-noble Shinigami in the Soul Society...

After defeating Yhwach, over the past thousand years, the Gotei 13 have gradually become the most powerful armed force in Soul Society amidst the chaos of all sizes.

Although he is still controlled by the nobles and his status is not high, it is mainly because Yamamoto himself pursues "responsibility" rather than "power". His management of the 13th Division is more based on his own strength, as well as the inertia of Soul Society's historical issues.

If there is another thousand years, Ichiryu believes that even if Yamamoto does not seek fame and fortune, the Thirteenth Division... or the small noble Shinigami and civilian Shinigami, will have an influence on Soul Society that is enough to challenge the noble groups. (Note 1)

"Captain, I feel sad when you say this. Did you think that a pure researcher like Captain Mayuri Kuroda is better than me in combat? I almost became the captain." Yilong said helplessly.

It seemed that because Kurotsuchi Mayuri was not good at fighting, he had the opportunity...

but……

In addition, Yilong was wearing broken glasses, and his spiritual pressure was a little unstable at this time, so it really looked like a miserable victory.

"Researchers..." Yamamoto muttered, not sure whether he really believed it or not.

Yamamoto immediately said in a serious tone, "I will investigate the matter of Kurotsuchi Mayuri later, so you can rest assured. However... after I stressed this, you still took the initiative to stir up trouble..."

Obviously, even if Yilong is eloquent, Yamamoto is not going to let this matter go - otherwise, who will take my words as...

At this moment, a member of the Riting team suddenly rushed in...

"Report! Captain-General! It's bad, Vice Captain Hinamori has escaped from prison!"

"What?" Yamamoto's face darkened when he heard that - that little girl!

"Report! Captain-General, something bad has happened. Captain Ichimaru has broken into the prison and rescued Vice Captain Kira!"

Yamamoto: …

"Report! Captain-General, something bad has happened. Captain Zaraki has attacked the 9th Division and rescued the Ryuuho who was imprisoned by Captains Tosen and Ukitake!"

Yamamoto: …

The captain was indeed not in good condition, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot!

Well, I'm afraid of comparison... Obviously, compared to these, Yilong can be said to have the most sufficient reasons. Even after defeating Kurotsuchi Mayuri, he wrote a letter to the captain to explain. In comparison, Yilong is simply law-abiding and loves the captain very much...

"This is outrageous! Captain! Please allow me to redeem myself from my crime!"

Yilong immediately asked for the order.

----

Note 1: To make it easier to understand, let's take the Northern Army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty as an example. The Northern Army started to take shape several decades ago when Xi Jian quelled Wang Dun's rebellion, and it has been several decades since it was officially named. It can be said that for most of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, they served as the main force in quelling civil strife, suppressing uprisings, and resisting the North. However, until the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the pure generals who were not from aristocratic families were still of humble status, the poor families were still of inferior class, and the aristocratic families were still powerful.

However, even though all the main generals of the Northern Army were eventually killed, Liu Yu was still born. He not only changed the dynasty, but also greatly improved the status of the poor during his reign.

If we do not look at it from a heroic historical perspective, it was the Northern Army itself that gave birth to the power to change the times.

By comparison, the Gotei 13 are currently in a stage where they are the Northern Army defending the north and have made great achievements, but on the other hand, they have become tools for internal fighting and have wasted their manpower in vain, while at the same time, they are being watched covetously by the powerful families and are trying to swallow them up.

The fact that the Kuchiki family and the Shihouin family joined the 13th Division is not contradictory to this. Similarly, in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Wang and Xie families also had people joining the staff to assist Huan Wen. This does not mean that the two families were of low status. When Huan Wen asked his subordinates to marry him, they would say, "You, Huan Wen, are a military strategist, how can you marry into my Wang family?"

In addition, I would like to explain why this metaphor is written here.

The reason I wrote this is, firstly, to prevent people from arguing, "Your analysis is unreasonable, the aristocratic system cannot be shaken, you are thinking in the modern era when non-aristocrats are in power, blah blah." Secondly, to prevent people from arguing from the other direction, "The 13th Division is so strong that the aristocratic system would have collapsed long ago, blah blah." So I gave an example of the collapse of the aristocracy at its peak in real history.

The reason why it is written at the end of the text instead of being integrated into the text through narration or the protagonist's psychological activities is because the protagonist does not know what Northern Army is, and there are no Northern Army in the world in the book, so it is not appropriate to write from the protagonist's perspective.

However, one point must be emphasized to prevent misunderstanding - the protagonist is not "Liu Yu".

I believe everyone can see that the protagonist has his own deeper purpose, but he has been hiding it, and it will remain hidden for a very long time.

However, one thing that can be revealed here is that the protagonist's ideals and goals are not in the humanistic sense.

Be it a human, an entity, a virtual being, a god of death, a commoner, or a noble... who lives well and who lives poorly is not the main concern of the protagonist. Don't expect too much social transformation in the humanistic sense. This is not the kind of story about actively improving productivity, improving the social system, and everyone working together to achieve a well-off life.

Although Bendong has written this kind of story more than once before, this time is really not one of them. It can be said that the protagonist does not have any humanistic thinking.

(End of this chapter)

50. Chapter 50: No Distress

50.

"No, you... go and be responsible for the security of the commercial area in West City within Soul Society." Yamamoto said in a deep voice at this time.

Yamamoto has some doubts, is he too gentle in recent years?

Those "monsters" back then didn't dare to jump like this when they were serving in the Gotei 13!

One, two... You all don't take my words seriously? You think I can't lift [Ryujin Jakka]?

In comparison, Yilong, who at least asked for instructions and apologized afterwards, did not seem to be that excessive...

But even so, Yamamoto was still cautious and sent Yilong to a quiet place.

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Yilong "instantly walked" all the way to the commercial district of the West Market of Seireitei - Seireitei is very large, and it would take an ordinary "entire" month and a half to walk around it.

Even with Yilong's usual performance, he can't have kept "instant step" to get here!

"Team Riting...you are worthy of being the captain!" Yilong whispered to himself on the way.

Team Riting, the fifth squadron of the covert mobile force.

Unlike the criminal troops of the First Division, the Riting Team is not organized in the Thirteenth Division and cannot receive two salaries... But that's not the point!

Captain Riting is good at speed and concealment, and is generally used to deliver important notices and orders. Therefore, even the first squadron would not theoretically stop Riting's team from entering.

Of course, this is only "theoretically". In reality, the Riting team would not advance so far...

Just at that moment, Team Ritsuji rushed directly to Yamamoto to report, and they must have received direct orders from Soi-Fong!

Although she didn't say much and just delivered the urgent message, this action itself expressed Soi-Fong's intention - compared to these captains and vice-captains, Yilong's mistake was simply too small.

If Yilong needs to be put in solitary confinement, they should go to the [Maggot Nest]. If Yilong needs to go to the [Maggot Nest], they should be sent to [Infernal Affairs]. Otherwise, they are targeting the Second Division!

Therefore, Yamamoto, who was unaware of the situation, allowed Yilong to make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence, and the specific promotion and punishment would be decided after the incident was settled.

Otherwise, Yamamoto wouldn't understand what those captains and vice-captains were thinking and didn't want to rashly order accountability.

Yilong didn't mind Yamamoto's idleness. There was one advantage of coming to the shopping street - he could get a pair of glasses at the same time!

Although there was no damage in the surrounding area, the business district seemed very calm at this time...

The "Travel Troubles" were trying to save Rukia and didn't want to be discovered or cause chaos, so they naturally wouldn't come to the usually bustling commercial district.

However, due to the "state of emergency" of the 13th Division, there is already a panic here!

Yilong was not affected. Occasionally, when the Shinigami from other squads saw Vice-Captain Shifengyuan, they would either take a detour as soon as they saw him from afar, or stand at attention and greet him obediently.

What surprised them a little was that Deputy Captain Shifengyuan, who was in charge of the security here, did not take the opportunity to show off his power and boss them around?

Yilong did not stroll around for long, but came to a time-honored eyewear store with a purpose - the Silver Dragonfly Eyewear Store!

In Seireitei, this glasses shop is very famous. It is a typical shop with high quality and even higher prices. It shows the profiteering side of glasses shops to the fullest. The common people in Rukongai can't afford it even if they sell their whole family...

Only Yilong doesn't feel sad every time he comes.

"Lao Yin, do you still have my degree?" Yilong said as he came in.

"Oh my, can it make you fight so fiercely?" The old man in the eyewear store couldn't help but exclaimed in a sarcastic tone when he saw the glasses Yilong placed on the counter.

Well, the owner of this eyewear store, Gin Ginjiro, is no ordinary person either, he is Renji Abarai’s ex!
