Matsushita Yusuke coughed twice, cleared his throat, and then spoke.

"First of all, I must thank everyone for coming. After all, you all have official business to attend to... You've all done so much for me today, so thank you very much!"

What about after that?

There's not much more to say.

"Please take good care of me from now on, since this is my first time being a captain... Hey? Soi Fon, why did you kick me? Script? Where is it? Let me see... Oh, you wrote my lines?"

These words were broadcast without exception.

Yoru Shihouin laughed so hard that tears streamed down his face. Looking at Soi Fon on the stage, whose face was almost red-hot, he couldn't stop smiling.

"This guy is really interesting!"

Ignoring the unnecessary interludes, in short... Yusuke Matsushita finally added a sentence.

"The Eleventh Division is treating everyone today, so please enjoy your food and drinks... That's all!"

The large cafeteria adopted a buffet format when it first opened.

Because the method was quite novel, everyone seemed rather curious.

Soi Fon naturally approached Yoruichi to exchange information about her work and progress over the past few days—although she had already joined Matsushita Yusuke's team, she still showed Yoruichi the same respect.

"Matsushita-kun".

A familiar voice came from the side.

The person involved turned their head slightly and saw Aizen Sousuke standing not far away with Tosen Kaname beside him, holding a plate and smiling.

"Congratulations on becoming the captain of the Eleventh Division."

"Aizen-sensei, you're too kind. Is there anything you'd like to eat or drink? I also have sake and..."

"Let's put food and drink aside for now. There's something we need to discuss. Could we talk in private for a moment?"

Hey?

Now, here? Should I transform into a giant (no)?

131: The Prison of Privilege Cheating

Secondly, let's put aside whether we'll talk about business or not.

Your secret relationship with Tosen Kaname shouldn't have been made public yet, right?

"Won't people misunderstand if I just show up like this?" Matsushita Yusuke stared at Aizen, wide-eyed, when another voice came from behind him.

"Indigo? Indigo!"

Hirako Shinji then approached, glancing around.

His gaze swept over the location of Aizen Sousuke and Tosen Kaname, then moved past them and looked further into the distance.

"...???"

Yusuke Matsushita watched as the guy muttered, 'How did he disappear in the blink of an eye?' and walked away from the three of them as if nothing had happened.

Seeing this reaction, Matsushita Yusuke's mouth opened slightly, as if he had finally realized what was happening.

Oh, you used "Mirror Flower Water Moon"!

I have to say, this thing is really useful.

There's practically no startup delay, and once it's on, you don't have to worry about anything. People who fall for it don't even realize it... they're completely fooled.

That is the case right now.

Even in public, Aizen Sousuke could easily conceal his identity to achieve his ulterior motives.

With a sigh, Matsushita Yusuke quickly followed, wanting to hear what new task the leader had suddenly issued.

"They're here, they're here..."

The three of them moved closer to the corner.

Tosen Kaname and Matsushita Yusuke sat on either side of Aizen, with Aizen sandwiched in the middle.

"I plan to start making further attempts soon."

Aizen Sousuke calmly picked up the grilled fish in front of him, savoring its flavor as his deep eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a rather amused expression.

"Matsushita, Tosen... you two should understand what I'm referring to, right?"

The two nodded silently, understanding each other perfectly.

The research on the Hogyoku has not yet reached its limit, and during these two months, Aizen sent them to Hueco Mundo to collect individuals. This was partly to lay the groundwork for the future formation of the Espada, and partly...

It was for the purpose of completing the research between Shinigami and Hollows.

Aizen's wish is to break down the boundary between the two and then break through to another dimension.

In fact, that's how it's written in the original work... In terms of its presentation, Aizen did indeed become a being in a 'non-human' state.

If Matsushita Yusuke had initially struggled to grasp the key points, his experiences over this period have given him a better understanding of these principles—Matsushita Yusuke gained the ability to create alternate versions of himself through the Hogyoku shards, allowing him to improve by nurturing another version of himself.

What about the jailer?

The answer is to directly use cheat codes, leveraging the complete Hogyoku to gain access and create a fully leveled virtual account for oneself.

The two merged together and, while in prison, completed their final adjustments, transforming into something that was almost immortal.

So, could Yusuke Matsushita achieve this level even after maxing out his skill?

It's not clear yet.

However, given the 'result' of Aizen, there is still interest in launching an attack in that direction.

So... let's get back to the main topic.

"Is the current experimental data sufficient?"

Tosen was involved more deeply than Matsushita Yusuke, so he naturally had a say in this matter.

The blind boy frowned, his face full of worry.

"Based solely on the current data and information, I believe..."

"Isn't that enough? Tosen, you're being too conservative."

Aizen Sousuke's smile was peaceful and confident, clearly an expression of self-confidence.

“We have collected enough data about the Hollows. This is the result of trial and error with thousands of intelligent individuals. We are ahead of everyone else in this regard... Don’t worry too much, Tosen, we are pioneers.”

Yusuke Matsushita had little say and was busy eating curry rice on the side.

What do you think, Matsushita-kun?

My supervisor asked for my opinion?

"I will unconditionally defend any opinion of the leadership!"

"Hehe... Tosen, is there anything else you think needs to be discussed?"

Two out of three votes were taken.

There seems to be no point in persisting.

The latter touched his head, then pressed the bridge of his nose, pondered for a moment, and then sighed softly.

"I understand... Lord Aizen may do as he pleases."

For small teams, reaching a consensus beforehand and ensuring everyone shares the same goal is crucial.

Now that this round of procedures has been completed, Aizen Sousuke smoothly moved on to the next topic.

"We already have enough virtual data, so what's left is the content related to the Grim Reaper."

Before Lao Lan could even speak.

Several familiar figures approached from a distance.

Shinji Hirako and his friends sat noisily next door...

"Hey! Baldy, why are you sitting in such a corner? Aren't you bored?!"

Sarugaki Hiyori muttered impatiently for a while, kicking Hirako Shinji's butt while carrying her plate.

Although the captain of the Fifth Division was somewhat annoyed, he seemed to have no time to pay attention to this brat at the moment.

He forced a smile and spoke to Kisuke Urahara.

"Captain Urahara, thank you so much for what happened last time..."

"You're welcome, it's just my duty."

Yusuke Matsushita couldn't help but turn his head in that direction, looking him up and down for a while.

It's not surprising that these two ended up hanging out together.

After all, everyone who was 'ambushed' by Aizen knew each other or had a close relationship with each other.

Just listening to their conversation, it seemed that they had quite a deep exchange and contact with each other.

Yusuke Matsushita chewed his curry thoughtfully, watching Kensei Muguruma, Rao Aikawa, and others take their seats one by one, and they chatted in hushed tones.

The presence of the Visoreds means...

"Hirako! Where's your vice-captain? Where did he go?"

"Ah... I was just looking for him too. That guy's been really troublesome lately, he keeps disappearing for no reason..."

"What? A rebellious phase? Even your Fifth Division has its moments of discord?"

"I guess they're upset because this guy sent out too many tasks."

"After all, Aizen is quite approachable. It's highly likely that you, Hirako, did something excessive."

The person who was attacked by the group looked quite helpless.

"How could I do something so pointless?! I just... felt that guy had been acting a little strange lately... never mind, I can't explain it to you guys."

Aizen Sousuke sat down no more than three meters away from him.

She calmly sipped the miso soup and said softly.

"I plan to use Captain Hirako and others as test subjects. Do you have any other suggestions?"

132: Imperfect Disguise

They were just discussing Aizen next door, and now they're about to send him to the testing ground...

The cold, aloof captain will soon be transformed into warm, fresh experimental data.

It's hard to say there wasn't any personal emotion involved—the abbot is petty, and you dare to speak ill of him? You're as good as dead!

Even Matsushita Yusuke couldn't help but wipe his sweat... Just how much mischief did Hirako Shinji do to make Aizen so 'suppressed'?

But all in all, the plot is finally starting to move forward!

Compared to the anxious Tosen Kaname, Matsushita Yusuke was clearly much more excited.

I can't wait any longer! Let me seize this momentous historical opportunity! I want to witness it (no, wait)!!!

"What specific plans are there, Lord Aizen?"

Faced with Tosen Kaname's confirmation, Aizen Sousuke calmly pushed up his glasses and spoke in an extremely composed tone.

"Tosen, do you remember our previous experimental results and related data records?"

"of course I remember."

Yusuke Matsushita also has a say in this matter.

"Aizen-sensei, are you referring to the time when you transformed the spirit?"

Having spent some time with Aizen, Matsushita Yusuke was directly involved in certain developments and experiments.

"That's right, that's it. Do you remember what conclusion we came to back then?"

The two looked at each other, and finally Matsushita Yusuke spoke.

"The spirit's strength is not high enough to support the total amount of spiritual power required to break through the limit..."

"Yes, that's it."

Aizen Sousuke put down his soup bowl, his expression calm, as if he were simply stating a trivial objective fact.
