Bleach: Traveling through Soi-Fong, Starting from Bankai

"Of course, this is no problem."

Dongxian expressed his gratitude and asked:

"Lord Aizen, can we now say that all captain-level Shinigami are under your control?"

Aizen waved his hand and said:

"After all, [Hollow Sea Mirage] is just a prototype of Shiba Kaiyan's Bankai, which I modified."

"Being able to amplify [Mirror Flower Water Moon] and interfere with the subconscious cognition of the Death Gods watching the battle is already the limit."

"Although he has unlimited potential, Shiba Kaiyan is only a Shinigami who has not yet mastered Bankai and has just entered the third level of spiritual power."

"Therefore, at most, they can interfere with the Death God at the second level of spiritual power."

"In fact, I suspect that even a powerful second-class Spirit Captain, like Captain Soi-Feng, might be able to sense that something is amiss."

"But fortunately, after your observations, this possibility has been ruled out."

Aizen took Tosen Kaname and continued walking deeper.

"But the others...are hiding quite well."

"Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, Unohana Retsu, Kyoraku Shunsui, Ukitake Jushiro..."

Aizen pointed out the names one by one and said:

"Just as expected, they all have a level of first-class spiritual power or above."

He sighed and said:

"Although it's not unexpected, it's still quite impressive to see that these captains all possess the strength of first-class spiritual power or above."

Dong Xian asked from behind:

"Lord Aizen, have they discovered that their subconscious has been interfered with?"

Shaking his head, Aizen denied:

"According to my speculation, even though a Death God with a first-class spiritual power or above was hypnotized, he also interfered with his subconscious."

“But they instinctively know something is wrong.”

"Therefore, since the assessment was over, they have subconsciously hidden themselves."

"At least, they avoid personal contact with me, the practitioner."

He sighed:

"When the spiritual life becomes powerful enough, it will indeed possess extraordinary spiritual perception."

"I don't use logic or reason, I act based on my intuition and instinct."

Dong Xianyao was worried when he heard this:

"Then we...?"

"It doesn't matter. Our goal has been initially achieved."

Aizen smiled and said:

"Even though they realize something is wrong, that's their perception of their own state."

"The wariness and suspicion towards the three of us have been buried deep within the sea of consciousness."

"Captain Soi-Feng just had dinner with me, and we even had a drink and chatted for a long time."

“This is the best evidence.”

Recalling something, Aizen laughed dumbly:

"In the past, Captain Soi-Fong would rather act drunk and lose his composure than talk to us any more."

"Lord Aizen is so wise!"

Dongxian sighed:

"If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known that we were already under the suspicion of Captain Yamamoto and his men."

"Sir, how on earth did you do that?"

"It's simple. This assessment is really deliberate."

Shaking his head slightly, Aizen said:

"I was a little skeptical at first, but when I felt the change in the reiatsu load of the Kidō Barrier, I realized it."

"—Captain Yamamoto and the others are deliberately observing the four of us."

He asked Dongxian:

"Shiba Isshin is the head of a branch of the Shiba family, one of the five great noble families."

"Kuroshita Mayuri is a former prisoner whose past is completely known."

"Guess what, after the 'Captain Hollow' incident."

"Who is more likely to be suspected by Yamamoto and the others, you, me, or these two?"

Dongxian wants to remain silent.

Back then, the captain of the 9th Division turned into a Hollow and went berserk, killing all of the [Six-Car Commando Squad].

Only Dongxian wants to survive, and he is obviously the most suspicious.

Aizen did not continue to point it out, but said:

"In fact, although I didn't look like I was suspected, I was actually being targeted a long time ago."

"Kyōraku Shunsui is Yamamoto's direct disciple and the intelligence chief of the Eighth Division."

"When we took action three years ago, I discovered that he was targeting me."

Aizen recalled:

"At that time, you had just ambushed Liu Che Quanxi and his useless team."

"When I left the 5th Division to support you, I discovered that Kyoraku Shunsui was stalking me from the shadows."

"Fortunately, he had already seen my [Mirror Flower and Water Moon]."

"It was difficult, but he was hypnotized by me once."

"I asked a soldier to work overtime all night to process the discarded documents in the archives, and asked him not to talk to anyone until he finished."

"So, he was in and out of the corridor, where he could be seen by Kyoraku Shunsui."

"Then, let Kyoraku Shunsui think of the soldier as me."

"That's how I got rid of his surveillance."

He patted Tosen's shoulder and said:

"It was that incident that made me realize that I can't be careless."

"There are many smart people in Seireitei, such as Mako Hirako, Shunsui Kyoraku, and Jushiro Ukitake..."

"Even—Kisuke Urahara."

"But fortunately, Hirako Mako is overconfident, Kyoraku Shunsui is hesitant, and Ukitake Jushiro is even more ill."

"At that time, Urahara Kisuke was also devoted to the 12th Division and technological research. I seized the opportunity and used the Central 46th Office to drive him away."

Dong Xian listened carefully and responded:

"I see. So that's why you haven't used Central 46 in the past few years?"

Aizen nodded and said:

"That would be too conspicuous and could easily lead to trouble."

"But now, you and I are both captains, and the suspicion has been lifted. We can participate in and plan many things."

"Central Room 46 can be used again."

After saying that, Aizen turned around and looked at the silver-haired young Death God:

"Yin, will you be my vice-captain?"

"I want you to take over the Third Division. To do that, you must have experience as a vice-captain."

The snake-like boy licked his lips and squinted his eyes.

"my pleasure."

........................

Soi Fong didn't know that tremendous changes had taken place in Soul Society quietly.

She returned to the 11th Squadron without any worries and went to bed early.

But she couldn't fall asleep and her mind was extremely active.

"Aizen is indeed as elegant, easygoing and humble as the rumors say."

"I don't understand why I always avoided him when he was vice-captain."

"..."

"Captain Ukitake, you and I have visited Shiba Kaiyan so many times, but we never saw him wake up."

"Why didn't Captain Ukitake go to see Haiyan when he woke up today?"

"..."

"And Haiyan, she was so badly injured, why does she seem so unconcerned about what happened?"

"Well, I can't figure it out. Go to sleep."

Soi Feng turned over and covered her head with the pillow.

She plans to get up early again tomorrow.

Yesterday, the two-on-two competition between the four prospective captains gave her a deep impression.

[Yan Mo Cricket] [Golden Ksitigarbha] [Empty Sea Mirage] [Sea Burning Moon]...

Four sets of Bankai appeared before her eyes, allowing her to observe them up close.

Therefore, Soi Fong vaguely felt that her understanding of Zanpakuto had been further improved.

"Well, let's go to the training ground tomorrow and put our inspiration into practice..."

Thinking of this, Soi Fong fell into a deep sleep.

Chapter 191 This is the God of Death

Soul Society, Seireitei.

The hollow space within the mountain is inherited from the secret training ground of childhood sweethearts Yoruichi and Urahara Kisuke.

Broken Bee was panting, having just finished her morning training.

There was no one around, so she took off her sweat-soaked clothes and threw them behind her.

Then, dip your slender, white toes into the hot spring to feel the water temperature.

Then, Soi Feng immersed her entire body in it.

“Huh—so cool—”

The entire hot spring belongs to her, so there is no need to rinse your body before taking a bath like in the hot springs in Seireitei.

In addition, this hot spring is running water with a certain self-purification ability, so Shuifeng has always gone directly into the water.

"I still remember when I was training here alone in the early years, my Bankai exploded all over my body and I was covered in wounds."

"As soon as I got into the water, the whole hot spring turned light red."

“But next time you come, it will be clean again.”

Soi Fong recalled, sinking her head into the hot spring, gurgling and spitting out bubbles.

"Snapped."

The dirty clothes she had just thrown away took a long time to fall to the ground.

But unlike the previous state where they were soaked with sweat, the clothes were now dry and clean.
