Even the Kuchiki family was in a state of minor chaos, and this was after the head of the family, Byakuya, had long ago ordered everyone to "cooperate with all their strength."
As can be foreseen, this will be a real test of the means of the god of death in charge!
A weak Shinigami like Yamada Hanatarō would definitely not be able to do well, and no one would pay attention to him; a Shinigami like Zaraki Kenpachi would definitely not be able to do well either, he could only ensure that there were no "living people" within the time limit and the range of the order...
However, these have nothing to do with Ichiryu. From the very beginning, Ichiryu had expressed different opinions. Moreover, as the head of the family, he had asked the Shihouin family to fully cooperate when Yamamoto, Kyoraku and others insisted on their own way, and no one could say anything.
Even if something goes wrong, it cannot be blamed on Yilong. Yilong is just "reading" quietly.
……
On the other side, the battle between Ichigo and Kariya Shin is in full swing!
Kariya, with full strength, holds a jet of wind blades, and fights in a similar way to the Shinigami who wields a wind-type Zanpakutō, but he is no match for Ichigo at all. It was not until Ichigo cornered him that Kariya prepared to self-destruct...
Immediately afterwards, Ichigo, wearing the "pendant" on his body, emitted a mysterious power, calming the vibrations of the surrounding space and preventing the self-destructive resonance of Kariya God from being transmitted.
At this moment, Kariya God, who did not see the explosion of other [Purification Seal], regretfully chose the ordinary "self-destruction" - he also had a [Purification Seal] in his body!
One can destroy one tenth of Seireitei...
At least that's what he believed, and Ichigo and the others believed it too.
"Not good!" Ichigo then discovered that his father's pendant seemed to only prevent his self-explosion from spreading outward, but could not stop him from exploding on his own.
And at this moment, Ichigo saw Inoue actually coming nearby - he probably rushed over after sensing the collision of spiritual pressure. After all, Ichigo would always be seriously injured after every hard battle.
At the last moment, Ichigo swooped down, knocked Inoue to the ground, and supported himself on top of her. But Inoue's hairpin elf, without waiting for her to use it, had already activated the "Shuangtian Jie Shield" and covered Ichigo's back!
next moment……
boom--
The ground shook...
However, the "Double Sky Shield" dozens of meters away did not even have a crack - you know, when hit by a captain-level powerful move, the "Double Sky Shield" would have cracks!
In this way, it seems that the two people stacked under the "Double Sky Shield" are a little too nervous...
Moreover, seeing that nothing serious happened, they became even more nervous when their eyes met!
"Hey! Is it time to get up? Let's all get out of the way..." The hairpin elf said to Ichigo's ear at this time.
"what!"
The two men exclaimed and quickly stood up, twisting their bodies to the side and not looking at each other.
Because the power was too small, Ichigo didn't even bother to look around and was just being "shy".
The surrounding death gods, at this time, were all expressing their gratitude for surviving a disaster, but they also had some doubts in their hearts - did the captain make a mistake?
This power can only be described as...
That's it?
This "self-detonation" cannot be said to be completely powerless. If it exploded among a group of soldiers, it would definitely cause considerable casualties, but...
In the final analysis, it's just like a captain-level Shinigami, who can use his ultimate move and all-out attack after using [Bankai]!
It did not exceed the standard of "self-destruction", but the order for emergency evacuation seemed a bit exaggerated.
At the same time, because Soul Society is so huge, after it was proven that the [Purification Chapter] was just a "dud", it would take some time for the Shinigami in other places to be notified.
Not to mention, Yilong is not the only one with such courage. There are also people who take advantage of others' misfortunes, but none of them are as well prepared as Yilong, who is certain that nothing will go wrong from the beginning...
By the time the chaos subsided, it was already half a day later. Yilong had already obtained the information he wanted, and left before the Kuchiki family regained peace.
Yilong was ready to speak a fair word and explain something on behalf of the captain, so that the nobles wouldn't blame the captain for the chaos...

167. Chapter 167 Big Changes
167.
2023-09-23
"If you ask me, I can't blame Captain Yamamoto for this. In the final analysis, it's the nobles who have to defend the enemy in Soul Society. Otherwise, how could there be so many problems?"
Outside the underground meeting hall of Room 46, Yilong was "talking nonsense".
A week has passed since the "successful resolution" of the [Soul Hunter Invasion Incident].
The subsequent game of rewards and punishments, division of responsibilities, and even "land grabbing" were also in full swing during this week...
Some people believe that the "Soul Hunter Incident" did not cause too much damage, and most of the casualties were suffered within the Gotei 13 - their duty is to "protect the court", and it is not excessive to sacrifice some for the sake of "protecting the court" now.
Some people also think that it was not a big deal in the first place, but it ended up being a mess, especially in the final stage, which caused most of Seireitei to enter a whole day of chaos!
There was even a standoff between some Shinigami from the Gotei 13 and the noble guards who were trying to coordinate the evacuation.
There were also some nobles who said that someone was taking advantage of the situation and that their homes had been robbed - after all, not everyone was like Yilong, who had no intention of pursuing the matter even though the "God-given military equipment" of the Shifengyuan family had been stolen.
He just keeps muttering. Everyone knows that he suffered a great loss...but no one knows whether it's true or not!
After a week of tug-of-war, this "war" has finally come to an end - the battle ended a week ago, but this was not a "duel" and deciding the winner was not the purpose. After the warriors left the stage, the smoke of war behind the scenes began to rise.
Of course, for most of the captains of the Gotei 13, this matter has little to do with them and belongs to unfamiliar territory...
But even so, today, except for Zaraki, other captains also noticed something unusual - this place is very unusual, and for most of the captains, this is the first time to come to the underground meeting hall of Room 46!
The custom of the ancient nobility is the opposite of the present world, where the lower are respected and the upper are despised. The meeting room of the top institution like Room 46 is underground, while the Confession Palace where Rukia was imprisoned before is very high...
For most captains, this is a very unfamiliar place, and they don’t want to get familiar with it, because... except for Yamamoto and Shifengyuan, the few who have been here were basically called here because they were "questioned"!
Generally speaking, the Forty-Sixth Chamber does not convey orders directly to the Gotei 13, but rather through Yamamoto Shigekuni.
But this time it was different. All the captains of the Gotei 13 were summoned, which in itself revealed something unusual.
Looking at Yilong at this time, he had an expression that said "I want to speak up for justice", and everyone vaguely guessed that this time... this guy took advantage of us a lot!
What about losing the "God-given Armor"...
Who believes this?
"Captain Shifengyuan, during this emergency evacuation, there were signs that the Kuchiki family was invaded..." Kuchiki Byakuya seemed to be completely unable to stand his "performance" and suddenly interrupted him.
"Bai Ya, I'm not saying anything bad to you, but you can't just think about yourself. We in Shifengyuan also lost a few pieces of God-given weapons, but if you ask me, just forget about it..." Yilong looked like he was going to use moral blackmail on him.
"Nothing was lost in the Kuchiki family..." Kuchiki Byakuya kept staring at Yilong.
Yilong interrupted directly: "That's right! We will say this later."
"These are some confidential information within the clan, and there are signs that they have been read... Does Captain Shifengyuan have any clues?" Kuchiki Byakuya asked directly.
"Well... the Kuchiki family is closer to Captain Kyoraku. I was not there at the time. You can ask Captain Kyoraku. But if you want to ask Captain Kyoraku, you don't have to ask..." Yilong's face became serious at this time.
Just as Byakuya showed a hint of inquiry and Kyoraku looked over, Ichiryu said seriously, "I guess he will tell you that this was done by Tsunayashiro Tokinada!"
Kuchiki Byakuya, Kyoraku Shunsui: ...
Kyoraku was also speechless, thinking he was going to say something.
"I'm sorry, I really didn't notice anything at that time." Kyoraku said to Kuchiki helplessly.
"It's nothing actually. I just don't know who would be so interested in the history of the Kuchiki family." Kuchiki Byakuya said calmly.
Yilong was secretly alert - these noble families really have some "information". It seems that... the Kuchiki family should have found some clues, but just have no evidence?
Of course, since there is no evidence, Yilong is not afraid of him testing...
Yilong also wanted to say that the Shifengyuan family had a "divine weapon" called the [Seven Mirror Sword] or the [Nine Mirror Sword] that was specifically used to "cut gods", but it was lost, but there was no evidence!
"Heh." Kurotsuchi Mayuri sneered at this time, but no one knew who he was laughing at.
Many captains looked at him curiously at this time...
Obviously his injuries have healed, and he has changed into a more exaggerated black and white mask, but he always changes into some exaggerated masks, and everyone is used to it.
Everyone is mainly curious about why he "teamed up" with Shihouin after attacking Kurosaki Ichigo?
Could it be that he was threatened by Shifengyuan?
In fact, Kurotsuchi Mayuri did make a discovery. He was basically certain that Kurosaki Ichigo's mother should be a pure-blooded Quincy!
Firstly, there is indeed a "Quincy flavor" on Kurosaki Ichigo, and secondly, Shihōin Ichiryū had asked him to make something before, and the style of that thing is the Quincy style, and it was a style that was popular a thousand years ago. Because of Ichigo's life experience, Kurotsuchi Mayuri was misled into thinking that the thing came from Shihōin's woman in the present world...
More importantly, Kurotsuchi Mayuri is in trouble himself now, and he dares not confront Shihouin Ichiryu for the time being, and as a result, he has temporarily put aside his interest in Kurosaki Ichigo and Kurosaki Masaki.
Soon, a messenger servant came out and informed the captains that they could enter.
The attendant who delivered the message was much more respectful than many captains had imagined.
However, he mainly targeted Byakuya Kuchiki and Ichiryu Shihouin. As for the others, he obviously didn't take them seriously. Among the other captains, only Shunsui Kyoraku was from a noble family, but he had few connections with his family and was not an important person. The others were either from minor noble families or were pariahs.
Yamamoto was already there, and including the acting captain Omaeda and the twelve captains, all the members were there at this time.
Before entering the underground, when handing over the custody of the Zanpakutō, Kenpachi Zaraki almost got into a conflict with the other party.
Fortunately, there is Captain Shifengyuan who is very considerate...
"Captain Zaraki, after we go in, none of us will hold the Zanpakuto, only you will. If a fight breaks out, wouldn't you be bullying others?" Yilong said very reasonably.
Others didn’t know where to start complaining—why did they have to fight in there?
Zaraki grinned and said, "Really? Why don't you guys take them too? Wouldn't it be more fun to fight?"
However, even though Zaraki said this, he was still persuaded to put down his chipped Zanpakutō, and then said, "If we fight like this, you won't have any excuses, right? Hahaha..."
Of course, the others had no intention of fighting with him!
In addition, Komamura was handed something extra - a mask. Apparently, the noble lords did not want to see the faces of the werewolves. After all, this was a symbol of "sinners".
Komamura was anxious for the captain at this time, so he didn't say much and just put it on obediently.
Arriving at the slightly depressing atmosphere in the 46th meeting room, everyone discovered that Mr. Yamamoto was indeed there, and... he was even invited to take the seat of honor. At this time, he had his eyes closed, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Among the crowd, only Ichiryu and Byakuya roughly knew what had happened.
The other one is Kyōraku... He adjusted his bamboo hat to hide his troubled face - he vaguely guessed something, maybe... the old man Yama was promoted in name only but demoted in reality, and the Gotei 13 will have major changes!

168. Chapter 168 Reorganization
168.
2023-09-23
After Shifengyuan Yilong and others entered the underground meeting hall, the surroundings were still in the same depressing layout, but...
At this time, the five judges stood up - to welcome Byakuya Kuchiki.
Only the heads of the four great noble families have this kind of treatment. No one else, whether the heads of the great noble families or the heads of the Shihouin family, has this privilege.
Rather than being a respect for the four great nobles, it is more accurate to say that "other nobles do not have this privilege" - this was a rule that was gradually formed to resist the old nobles when the Forty-Six Chambers were first established and their power expanded.
However, only the judge stood up, because the "sages" were theoretically supposed to "hide behind their numbers" and at this time they just bowed their heads behind their numbers.
And the reason why only five judges stood up...
"Grandpa Liu Sheng, Grandpa Liu Sheng..."
"Hmm? Kyubei is back? He's grown taller... Show grandpa!"
Shiro Koyanagi finally woke Yagyu Munenori up, but the old man seemed to mistake Zaraki for someone else. He jumped onto the table and greeted him.
"That's Captain Zaraki, not Brother Kyubei..." Yushiro also wanted to complain - how can they look alike at all... ah, they are both wearing eye patches, so they are similar! But this can't be mistaken, right?
What is "growing taller"?
Is this a question of "growing taller"?
But Brother Kyubei has been away for training for a long time...
"Who are you, old man?" Zeraki glared at him directly.
Feeling Zaraki's murderous aura, Zong Yan immediately became serious and said: "Huh? You want to act like a spoiled child to grandpa as soon as you come back? Well, grandpa can teach you the art of killing now..." As he spoke, Zong Yan's aura of strength rarely emerged.
Seeing this, Zeraki was surprised. He didn't expect that this old man could really fight. Then, a bloodthirsty look appeared on his face. Respecting the old and loving the young didn't exist for him...
