From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 460: Soul Burial, Kyoraku Shunsui's Three Things and the Hollowization Gag Order.

Soul Society, Seireitei.

Squad 13, Soul Burial Ground.

Ukitake Jushiro and a group of members of the 13th Division are chanting around the body of Saito Furuo. This is a purification ritual. After the chanting is over, a bonfire will be lit, and Saito Furuo will eventually fall into hell.

Although that flat-chested loli was a dangerous element in Soul Society and was wanted by the Gotei 13 during her lifetime.

But after her defeat, Yamamoto Genryusai came to see her off in person.

Not only Yamamoto Genryusai, but also Unohana Retsu was at the soul burial site.

The two of them stood side by side, watching Ukitake Jushiro light the bonfire leading to hell with his own hands, their expressions did not change, neither happy nor sad.

"From now on, there will be one less old friend in the world." Sister Hua suddenly sighed softly.

Yamamoto Genryusai, who was standing by, was slightly moved when he heard this, and then said, "When I first saw her, I had already foreseen this outcome."

Sister Hua tilted her head slightly when she heard this, looked at Yamamoto Genryusai and said, "It's not just her, right?"

This made Yamamoto Genryusai silent for a while. After a long while, he continued, "You are right. All of us sinners will end up like this."

Sister Hua nodded, then smiled and said, "Thirteen people back then will all end up like this. I had the same idea as you, especially me. I used to think that maybe I would go to hell earlier than Saito. But now my thoughts have changed. Maybe I can live a very long time, in a way I never thought of before, just like Bayunzhai."

The first generation captains of the Gotei 13 all had different fates. Most of them died in battle like Saito Fuuma, but some escaped unscathed.

That was the first captain of the 8th Division, Kano-no-Takunsai.

She is a gentle-looking girl with glasses. When Yamamoto Genryusai led the Gotei 13 to make changes, she foresaw the disaster that would happen later and left the Gotei 13 early. Now she is the high priest of the Seireitei Shinto Festival and has a good relationship with the Ise family and is engaged in Shintoism.

She was not on leave. At that time, the Gotei 13 were just preparing to fully merge with the Soul Society. There was no such thing as not being able to leave and only being on leave, so she was essentially leaving the team.

She has never shown up again over the years, and Yamamoto Genryusai and Unohana Retsu have never gone to the sacred festival to see her.

Perhaps, Kano-no-Takunsai is the one who truly escaped the fate of the first Gotei 13.

"Bayunsai." Yamamoto Genryusai said with emotion: "It's been a long time since I heard her name, and it's been a long time since I thought of her."

Watching the flames that symbolized hell burn Saito Immortal to ashes, the flames began to die out, and Yamamoto Genryusai turned around and said, "Let's go, there is still a court meeting to go on."

Sister Hua did not respond, but turned around and followed the back of Yamamoto Genryusai. Not far away, Ukitake Jushiro handed over the follow-up work to several team members, put on the captain's haori, and caught up.

When they left the Soul Burial Ground and just walked out of the 13th Squad's barracks, they saw several figures talking on the street outside the door.

Kyoraku Shunsui was standing with a man who looked somewhat similar to him, while Ben was whispering with a gentle and quiet woman wearing glasses.

As if she had noticed the arrival of Yamamoto Genryusai and others, the gentle and quiet woman whispered something to Ben, then quickly walked to the side of the man next to Kyoraku Shunsui.

Then the man took two steps forward and took the initiative to greet Yamamoto Genryusai and said, "Master Genryusai, I haven't greeted you for a long time. I appreciate your care."

Yamamoto Genryusai also nodded politely to the man and said, "Master Kyoraku is too polite."

Obviously, this man who looks somewhat like Kyōraku Shunsui is Kyōraku Shunsui's elder brother and the current head of the Kyōraku family.

After a few simple greetings, Yamamoto Genryusai understood that, because Kyoraku Shunsui never came home, his brother came to him personally and told him that he was about to marry the woman next to him, Ise Misaki.

I hope Kyoraku Shunsui can take some time out of his so-called 'busy schedule' to attend their wedding.

Without wasting too much time, obviously seeing that Yamamoto Genryusai and the others still had things to deal with, after finishing the topic with Yamamoto Genryusai, Kyōraku Shunsui's brother looked at Kyōraku Shunsui and said, "Sozo-sa, please."

Kyoraku Shunsui scratched his head with a slightly awkward expression, looked at Ise Misaki, then looked at his brother, and finally did not speak, but still nodded to show his attitude.

"Then, Lord Genryusai, Lord Lingzun, we will take our leave first." The head of the Kyōraku family greeted Bann and Yamamoto Genryusai with a warm smile, then turned around and slowly walked away.

Bane and the others did not waste any time and went to the headquarters of the First Squadron together to prepare for the court meeting.

While walking on the road, Ben looked at Kyoraku Shunsui curiously and asked, "Why does your eldest brother call you Sozozo?"

The corner of Kyoraku Shunsui's mouth twitched slightly, as if he didn't want to talk.

Ukitake Jushiro on the side said with a smile: "Because Shunsui's full name is 'Kyoraku Jiro Sozosa Shunsui', he doesn't seem to have a good relationship with his brother. His brother always calls him 'Sozosa', so later he simply dropped the middle name and called himself Kyoraku Shunsui."

"Naughty guy." Bane laughed and teased.

Kyoraku Shunsui glared at Ben and said, "This is the sad story of the second son of a noble family. It's not a naughty story at all." Although Ben didn't remember that Kyoraku Shunsui had a full name, he had some impression of his story in this regard. Kyoraku Shunsui's relationship with his brother was indeed not very harmonious since childhood. It was not until his brother got married that things got better. Since then, Kyoraku Shunsui would go to his brother's house to have fun when he had nothing to do.

But his brother died soon after.

"The Ise family has never intermarried with others. They always recruit sons-in-law. This time..." Yamamoto Genryusai suddenly said this for some reason.

The Ise family is quite special. They are a priestly family that has served the gods for generations. Perhaps it is because of the need to worship the gods, or perhaps it is influenced by some other factors. In short, the Ise family with a long history is one of the few matrilineal nobles in Soul Society.

According to records, the bloodline of the Ise family will only give birth to baby girls, which means that as long as you marry into the Ise family, you will definitely give birth to a daughter.

And it seems that there is a curse from "God". The husbands of Ise family often die young after getting married and giving birth to children.

Because of these strange factors, the Ise family never married other nobles and always recruited sons-in-law.

Not to mention the fact that only daughters can be born. After all, many nobles in the Soul Society are relatively open-minded. They only care about whether the child is of legitimate blood, not gender. As long as your bloodline is pure enough and your status is noble enough, you can inherit the position of head of the family regardless of gender.

Examples include Shihouin Yoruichi, Tenshoin Chika, and Saito Furumushi, who once had the potential to become the head of Kuchiki.

This is true for all the great nobles, not to mention the other lesser nobles.

But it’s hard to say about that strange curse. Every time a woman gives birth to a child, her husband will die young. Who can bear this?

Especially the nobles, how could they accept such a thing?

Therefore, the Ise family basically recruited sons-in-law to marry into the family.

Kyoraku Shunsui had obviously heard of this curse, and he said, "Miss Misaki is planning to use the marriage to sever her ties with the Ise family, so he is not considered a son-in-law, so he shouldn't be cursed, right?"

"The curse is illusory." Ukitake Jushiro wanted to say something to comfort him, but when he thought about his identity, it didn't seem appropriate.

After all, he is a being related to God.

Kyoraku Shunsui sighed and said, "Anyway, I can never change his mind, so let him do whatever he wants."

Bane did not continue to join in the topic, but started communicating with Sister Hua.

"Yachiryu, how's that guy Kuriyashiki doing?" Bane asked.

"It's nothing serious. He is incredibly strong. Even if he doesn't receive my treatment in the future, he will be able to recover in a few days." Sister Hua smiled gently.

It seemed that he did not want to discuss his brother's affairs with Yamamoto Genryusai and the others. After hearing that Ben had started a new topic with Sister Hua, Kyoraku Shunsui interrupted and said happily, "Luckily you went in time, otherwise there would be one more soul burial today, and I would have one less person to drink with in the future."

"But I didn't expect that Senior Saito was so powerful that even Kenpachi Kuriyashiki was almost killed." Ukitake Jushiro also sighed.

"Okay, let's stop discussing that guy." Yamamoto Genryusai waved his hand, interrupting the discussion about Saito's immortality.

It is obvious that Yamamoto Genryusai has already discussed the matter of hollowization with Bane.

According to the resolution of the Central Forty-sixth Room, this matter will be covered up in accordance with the previous regulations of the Soul Society, so it is best not to discuss the matter of Saito's immortality, so as not to let it slip.

All other relevant personnel have been issued a gag order.

Kyoraku Shunsui, Ukitake Jushiro and others obviously had no idea about such things as hollowification.

I was a little confused, but I didn't ask any more questions.

However, Bane didn't really believe that this matter could be kept secret, because there were too many people who witnessed Saito's immortality and hollowization.

The entire Sixth Division and the entire Eleventh Division witnessed this scene with their own eyes.

Perhaps those Shinigami soldiers who had no relevant experience did not understand the situation at first, but Kuchiki Sojun, who was anxious to remind Kenpachi Kuyashiki, shouted out the term "Hollowification" loudly.

Then Saito Bulaobusi also followed suit and said a few words.

The gag order issued to these hundreds of people may be effective in the short term, but over time, it is almost inevitable that the news will leak out.

Unless all these people are killed!
But this is obviously impossible. Most of the soldiers in the Sixth Division are from middle and lower-level noble families. If one move is involved, the whole body will be affected. Who dares to kill them all?
The 11th Division was the most powerful division of the Gotei 13. Even if the Central 46th Division issued an order to silence them, Yamamoto Genryusai would never carry it out, otherwise he would be cutting off his own arms.

So in Bane's opinion, the matter of virtualization will be revealed sooner or later.

While they were chatting and thinking, they arrived at the headquarters of the First Battalion.
