The only player in the world of Bleach

Yusuke Matsushita is very easygoing, and he even has time to take a look at the other person's appearance.

Judging solely from appearance...

The other party has a human-like appearance.

The blonde woman on the left has a hot figure, while the dark-haired woman on the right has a more reserved demeanor.

The uniform, with its off-white base color, looked quite crisp and clean, and now it seems to bring out a unique charm.

In terms of both expression and appearance, the two were no different from 'people' in the normal sense.

To see such a normal human appearance in Hueco Mundo is simply a fantasy in the history of the world.

of course.

If we're judging solely from appearance...

In fact, Matsushita Yusuke's attention was soon drawn to other things.

Those were horn-like remnants left on the other person's head.

Like bull horns, a milky white protrusion was stuck to the left side of their foreheads, closely attached to their hair, making it look unusually exaggerated.

Arrancar...

As one of the designers, Yusuke Matsushita was not entirely unfamiliar with these new life structures.

But some things will always amaze you no matter how many times you see them.

Matsushita Yusuke rubbed his chin, staring thoughtfully at the two people in front of him. He slightly opened his mouth, as if to say something, but then hesitated for a moment.

Only at the very end did he ask in a tentative tone.

"You two... I remember you were the two sisters who were the experimental subjects before?"

Seemingly unsure, Matsushita Yusuke raised his right hand and emphasized as he drew a circle.

“I remember there were indeed two Adjuchas in their bull forms undergoing experiments before…”

The tone was not very certain.

After all, back then, just looking at them, those two phantoms looked like oversized tanks, their size was exaggerated to an extreme.

It's hard to connect the two beautiful girls right under my nose.

However, after hearing Matsushita Yusuke's question, the two showed expressions of surprise and said in unison.

"Yes! Lord Matsushita!" x2

How come a perfectly normal ghost suddenly turned into a human after its appearance was altered?

While reflecting on the situation, business couldn't be neglected. Matsushita Yusuke raised an eyebrow, glanced at the two men for a moment, and then…

A smile then appeared on his face.

"The experiment was a great success! Your human forms...have been preserved very well?"

211: Hueco Mundo Battle Royale

Experiments related to broken surfaces have been a major research topic for Yusuke Matsushita for a long time.

As mentioned before... due to limited manpower, each member of the Sky Club has their own area and content to be responsible for.

As for Yusuke Matsushita, he was probably assigned to research the stability of the broken face form and the various problems that might occur during the switching process.

— Just like the original work, full of high-class style, the ability to draw a sword and then return it to its original state, and the ability to change size at any time and place, these are essentially 'achievements'. They are important results that require long-term research and correction before they can be obtained and maintained.

It's fair to say that the process you can't see is the most troublesome.

According to the original story, the Blue Prison Squad must have lost a lot of hair in this regard...

Now it's Yusuke Matsushita's turn.

He looked at the two beautiful young women in front of him, his arms crossed, nodding in admiration.

"From an appearance standpoint alone, there's absolutely nothing to criticize... As a suit, it's already a perfect score."

Of course, the inherent flaws brought about by the broken face are an unavoidable aspect of the experience. For example, the cow horns that are currently growing are probably an example of this.

The two sisters didn't understand what the leather cap meant, but at least they could understand Manfen.

"Matsushita-sama, would you say we've made a successful 'work'?"

Seeing the slightly excited expression on the other person's face, Matsushita Yusuke nodded happily and said cheerfully.

"Of course, let's pack up and move to Aizen-sensei's palace later."

Upon hearing this, both of them showed expressions of surprise and delight. They huddled together and spoke excitedly.

"Thank you, Lord Matsushita, thank you, Lord Matsushita..."

very excited.

But that's normal.

Because in the worldview instilled by Aizen and others, every Arrancar that can be called a 'finished product' needs to undergo a second selection process.

The location is within Aizen Sousuke's palace—although it may sound misleading, this selection process is not erotic at all, but rather quite bloody.

The reason is also very simple.

This is a bloody battle with a bottom-ranking elimination system.

In fact... Aizen Sousuke had already begun a similar ranking-based selection mechanism at this stage.

It's just that we haven't reached the point where we need to pick out the ten coolest ones yet... Come to think of it, this kind of battle royale must have lasted for a long time, which is why the Arrancar that came out later were indifferent to similar behavior.

While there is indeed a theoretical reason for Xu's innate personality, Lao Lan's upbringing has certainly been enough to make him Spartan.

Closer to home.

At that moment, Yusuke Matsushita rubbed his chin and looked thoughtfully at the two excited Arrancar in front of him.

All he remembered was that these were two Adjuchas who had been captured together and forced into an experimental phase...

The two seem to be sisters, and over the course of these months, they developed a sense of admiration for Matsushita Yusuke's abilities, which led to their 'submission'.

Neither ethically nor legally, Matsushita Yusuke needs to take responsibility for these two Arrancar, since the subsequent selection is a matter for the Blue Prisoner... and has nothing to do with him.

But ah.

The person involved pondered for a moment.

After a brief moment of silence, Matsushita Yusuke finally spoke, slowly saying...

"You two... when you get back to Aizen-sensei's place, if you feel something's off, remember to run to a less crowded area... don't provoke him, and if all else fails, just beg for mercy."

Battle royale is designed to weed out the strongest, and Lao Lan only cares about the last one standing.

As for the others who were eliminated, he didn't care much... he didn't even care whether they lived or died.

Therefore, the words that Matsushita Yusuke is saying now are an important 'strategy' for saving his life!

'These two have improved a bit, but it'll be harder for them to get a chicken dinner... Better to live than die, I hope you two survive.'

He raised his right hand and gently rubbed the woman's head on the right, speaking with a rather sentimental tone.

"As for the rest? Well... it's up to you guys to figure it out."

As he spoke, Matsushita Yusuke slowly stepped forward, and as he brushed past him, he raised his right hand and waved lightly.

"Take care, and I hope we'll meet again someday."

Although neither of them understood the specifics of the situation, they wouldn't do anything too out of respect—looking in the direction Matsushita Yusuke had left, the two of them lowered their heads and bowed cautiously.

Yusuke Matsushita returned to the familiar laboratory.

His slightly wistful expression, as he rubbed his cheeks, gradually dissipated like an effervescent tablet dropped into water.

"Matsushita-sama, here is the experimental data..."

Among the Arrancar, there are many talented individuals who can communicate effectively. Generally speaking, these people who are selected are essentially guaranteed admission... After all, there are very few individuals who can understand reports, and sending them directly to play battle royale would be a waste of talent.

"There's a result? Let me see..."

Yusuke Matsushita glanced at it briefly, then his brows furrowed slightly.

"No good... Both the data and the stability are far from what we expected. This is not a satisfactory product."

Yusuke Matsushita handed the documents back, the wrecked man holding the data sheet looking somewhat bewildered, after all, he couldn't, and wasn't qualified to, make a judgment at this time.

We can only solicit opinions.

"Then what should we do, Lord Matsushita?"

Without turning his head, the latter raised his left hand and, with a light wave, spoke in a rather casual tone.

"Get rid of it all, and remember to clean it thoroughly... don't make it too smelly."

The glimmer of humanity is but a fleeting halo; for members of the Sky Club, the true norm is to use any means necessary to achieve one's goals.

Matsushita Yusuke had done similar things countless times before, disposing of all the unqualified test subjects in one go.

And this is the current situation.

It was merely another brief and simple attempt on the path to success.

Although this statement would cost the lives of thousands of spirits, it didn't matter to Yusuke Matsushita.

I'm not doing it anyway, but I'll have to do it once Yhwach comes in...

As for the psychological burden... there might be some discomfort at first, but now Yusuke Matsushita has basically adapted completely.

Namo San, considering that it's already difficult enough to become a ghost, you should just reincarnate in one of the other two places and start over.

212: Oh my, isn't that a bull's head?

Adhering to this underlying philosophy, while also being sufficiently dedicated and specialized in this field...

Matsushita Yusuke's experimental efficiency far surpassed that of Tosen.

"The next report."

After taking his seat, Matsushita Yusuke began to handle related tasks.

Although the laboratory he left behind in Hueco Mundo can operate on its own, for more important matters or to judge some experimental results, he still needs to make the final decision himself.

After a series of instructions, the accumulated contents were almost gone.

However, during this review process... Yusuke Matsushita seemed to have seen something unexpected, and unusually paused.

"Please wait a moment."

He stopped a document that was almost taken away, examined it again for a while, and then took it out again and carefully looked through it for a short time.

"..."

He seemed to have made a decision, and suddenly stood up.

"This is the test subject. Take me there to see it."

Since it was his own territory, he naturally had the final say. Matsushita Yusuke's request was quickly relayed, and a few minutes later, he stood in front of an isolation room that resembled a prison cell.

The masked man standing beside him diligently held up the documents in his hands, trying his best to clearly describe the current situation and information.

"This test subject was sent here about six months ago. Its condition is very unstable, and it often suddenly becomes agitated and attacks its surroundings... It exhibits extremely strong aggressive characteristics and seems to lack intelligence..."

As he spoke, he secretly glanced around at his surroundings out of the corner of his eye.

After all, they had been working together for so many years, and he understood his boss's personality all too well.

'This type of test subject is probably the kind that Matsushita-sama hates the most... Why did he suddenly decide to keep them here this time?'

I don't understand, but that's okay.

When it comes to work, the first priority is to listen to your supervisor's opinions. That way, even if there's an investigation later, you'll have a reason to say...

So I just listen to the boss, I do whatever he says (shrugs).

At that moment, Matsushita Yusuke's gaze was fixed on the figure in front of him. His expression changed for a while, and finally he revealed a half-smile.

"Really? What a coincidence..."

"Did you say something, Mr. Matsushita?"

"No, just put your things down and go about your business. Don't worry about me."

The men under him were delighted and quickly responded, putting down their things and running away.
